18 2007-07-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
20 * find/find.1: Corrected a number of typos and fixed up the
21 alphabetical section ordering. This fixes Savannah bug #20552.
23 Version banners now comply with the GNU coding standard.
24 * find/parser.c (parse_version): Use display_findutils_version()
25 instead of printing the information manually. Don't include
26 gnulib-version.h since we no longer directly use that header.
27 * lib/findutils-version.c: Added
28 * lib/findutils-version.h: Added
29 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Added version-etc and

40 * locate/updatedb.sh (version): Display copyright information in
41 the right format. Also ensure that we exit with a nonzero status
42 if there was an output error for --help and --version.
43 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_version): Adjust for
44 --version format change

77 2007-07-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
79 Fix Savannah bug #20310.
80 * m4/nullsort.m4: If we are cross compiling, assume "sort -z" does
81 not work on the target.
84 * find/find.1: More consistent use of quotation marks.
85 * locate/locate.1 (HISTORY): New section.
87 2007-07-02 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
89 * import-gnulib.sh: (run_gnulib_tool): Don't pass --gpl3 to
90 gnulib-tool, since the program does not have that option (that was
91 a local change which proved not to be necessary).
94 * COPYING: Migrate to version 3 of the GNU General Public license.

152 New worked example for find.
153 * doc/find.texi (Copying A Subset of Files): Added a new worked
156 * doc/find.texi (Updating A Timestamp File): Indicate that %A@ now
157 includes a sub-second part on many systems.
159 Include <fcntl.h> unconditionally.
160 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Also use the fcntl module.
161 * find/find.c: #include <fcntl.h> unconditionally, since

174 * locate/word_io.c (getword): Likewise.
176 2007-06-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
178 * find/find.1 (EXAMPLES): Added an example of using find and cpio -p
179 to copy a directory tree, with pruning and omitted files.
181 * find/pred.c (format_date): Use verify_true for constant
182 conditions rather than assert.
183 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Ditto.
185 Enhancements to the code smell detector.
186 * Makefile.am (findutils-check-smells): Automate the calling of
187 build-aux/src-sniff.py.
188 * build-aux/src-sniff.py: Rework to use a list of regex-based
189 sniffers, to allow checking types of file other than C. Allow
190 file-based regex sniffers to give an indication of the line number
191 where they think the problem (or part of the problem) exists.
192 Added code smell detectors for a sample Bourne shell problem and
193 for out-of-date FSF addresses.
195 * find/tree.c (get_pred_cost): Eliminate unused variable.
197 Fix Savannah bug #20263 in a more portable way.
198 * find/tree.c (cost_table_comparison): Avoid casting function
199 pointers to poiter-to-object, since this is not portable (or
200 of course conforming). Instead, use memcmp().
202 2007-06-28 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
204 * import-gnulib.sh (run_gnulib_tool): Speed operation when
205 updating an existing tree.
207 Allow 'make check' to work without prior 'make all'.

214 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP, EXTRA_DIST_XO)
215 (EXTRA_DIST_XI): Add new test.
216 * xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp (xargs_start): Support optional
217 argument to allow test to run a subshell.

222 * NEWS: Document the fix.
224 2007-06-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
226 Added a maintenance manual.
227 * doc/find-maint.texi: New file.
228 * doc/Makefile.am (info_TEXINFOS): Added doc/find-main.texi.
229 * doc/find.texi (Introduction): Fixed typo.
231 2007-06-26 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
233 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Allow ./configure
236 2007-06-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
238 * build-aux/src-sniff.py: Detect uses of struct stat where the
239 header file was not included.
240 * find/find.c: Fix this, and uses of assert without a following
241 space (the coding standard requires a space, but there are still
242 a number of cases where other functions are called with no
244 * find/fstype.c: Ditto.
245 * find/ftsfind.c: Ditto.

255 * locate/word_io.c: Ditto.
256 * xargs/xargs.c: Ditto.
258 * find/tree.c (cost_table_comparison): Avoid < comparison between
259 function pointer types. Instead cast the function pointers to
260 (const void*). Both alternatives are undefined C, but the former
261 actually fails to compile on some systems. This fixes Savannah
263 * NEWS: mention the fix
265 * find/tree.c (calculate_derived_rates): Removed assignment to
266 rate variable following an assert(0) call, which had been added to
267 silence a "used before initialised" warning, and replace it with a
268 call to abort, which (a) correctly halts execution if _NDEBUG is
269 defined and (b) more accurately documents what's happening.
271 * find/parser.c (get_stat_Ytime): Removed redundant call to abort.
273 * find/util.c (debug_stat): For consistency, use assert (0) rather
276 2007-06-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
278 * README-alpha: Mention the findutils-patches mailng list and the
279 archives for findutils-patches and bug-findutils.
281 2007-06-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
283 * build-aux/.gitignore, debian/.gitignore, doc/.gitignore,
284 find/.gitignore, find/testsuite/.gitignore, .gitignore,
285 lib/.gitignore, locate/.gitignore, locate/testsuite/.gitignore,
286 m4/.gitignore, po/.gitignore, xargs/.gitignore,
287 xargs/testsuite/.gitignore: New files to make it more painless to
288 track findutils sources with git.
290 * NEWS: Mention the previous change to doc/find.texi.
292 2007-06-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
294 * doc/find.texi (Introduction): Recommend that people check they
295 are using the latest version before reporting a bug.
297 2007-06-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
299 Better documentation for the fractional part of seconds fields for
300 -printf and similar actions.
301 * doc/find.texi (Time Components): Point out that the seconds
302 field of the timestamp is often printed out with a fractional part
303 of unspecified length and precision. The '%Tc' field has no
305 (Combined Time Formats): Point out the same thing for '%T@'.
306 * find/find.1 (%A): Point out the same thing.
307 * NEWS: Mention these changes.
309 Fix various lint-type complaints taken from the rules in the
310 coreutils Makefile.maint file (see build-aux/src-sniff.py).
311 * xargs/xargs.c: Removed unnecessary parentheses in "#if defined"
313 (main): Don't cast the return value of xmalloc.
314 (add_proc): Don't cast the return value of xmalloc.
315 * lib/regextype.c: Don't include quotearg.h, we don't need it.
316 * lib/dircallback.c, lib/nextelem.c, lib/prontquoted.c,
317 lib/qmark.c, lib/strspn.c, lib/waitpid.c: Assume config.h is available.
318 * lib/extendbuf.c: Ditto
319 * lib/listfile.c: Ditto. Also removed unnecessary parentheses in
320 "#if defined" checks.
321 (get_link_name): Don't cast the result of xmalloc.
322 * lib/bigram.c: Removed unnecessary parentheses in "#if defined"
324 * lib/savedirinfo.c: Assume config.h is available. Also removed
325 unnecessary parentheses in "#if defined" checks.
326 * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_do_insert): Don'tcast the result of xmalloc().
327 * find/tree.c (build_expression_tree): Don't cast the argument to free().
328 * find/ftsfind.c (set_close_on_exec): Removed unnecessary
329 parentheses in "#if defined" checks. Also changed "filesystem" ->
331 * find/util.c (check_nofollow): Removed unnecessary parentheses in
332 "#if defined" checks.
333 * find/parser.c (estimate_fstype_success_rate): ditto.
334 (insert_regex): Do not cast the result of xmaloc(). Removed unnecessary
335 parentheses in "#if defined" checks. Also changed "filesystem" ->
338 * find/find.c: "the the" -> "the", "filesystem" -> "file system"
339 * find/fstype.c: "filesystem" -> "file system" (in comments and
341 * locate/frcode.c: Removed unnecessary parentheses in "#if
343 * locate/locate.c (search_one_database): Don't cast the return
345 (dolocate): Mark error message for translation.
347 2007-06-21 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
349 * locate/.cvsignore: Ignore dblocation.texi.
350 * build-aux/.cvsignore: Ignore Makefile.
351 * locate/locate.c (set_max_db_age): Fix typo in error message.
353 2007-06-19 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
355 Fix compilation on cygwin, Savannah bug #20210.
356 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Import strcasestr and
357 updated canonicalize-lgpl-tests.
358 * lib/dircallback.c (includes): Track gnulib changes.
360 2007-06-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
362 * find/parser.c (parse_time): Use the variable comp, which holds
363 the planned comparison type, rather than the structure tval, which
364 has not been initialised yet and contains a random value. This
365 fixes Savannah bug #20139.
366 * NEWS: Mention the bugfix.
368 2007-06-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
372 * find/find.1 (HISTORY): Document when the find tests -readable,
373 -writable, -executable and the option -regextype were introduced.
375 2007-06-12 Nix <nix@esperi.org.uk> (trivial change)
377 * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): Use groups[0] rather than
378 groups[1], since groups[] is a one-element array. This is a
379 buffer overrun affecting root only. In theory it could affect
380 setuid installations, but I (James Youngman) cannot find an explot
381 mechanism for it. This fixes Savannah bug#20157.
382 * NEWS: Mention this fix.
384 2007-06-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
386 Make the test suite work when run as root.
387 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (fs_superuser): Abstract out the
388 check which discovers if we have superuser privileges on the
389 filesystem (taken from access.exp).
390 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: Call fs_superuser.
391 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint-unwritable.exp: Use fs_superuser.
393 2007-06-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
397 Check that we can correctly read old-format databases which are
398 big-endian or little endian.
399 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp (locate_from_db): New function;
400 supports testing locate against a provided database.
401 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigendian.exp: New test; make sure
402 we can read an old-format big-endian database.
403 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigendian.xo: Expected output from
405 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/littleendian.exp: New test; make sure
406 we can read an old-format little-endian database.
407 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/locateddb.old.powerpc.xi: Old format
408 big endian database file, for supporting bigendian.exp.
409 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/littleendian.xo: Expected output from
410 littleendian.exp test.
411 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/locateddb.old.x86.xi: Old format
412 little endian database file, for supporting littleendian.exp.
413 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute littleendian.exp,
414 bigendian.exp and related .xi and .xo files.
417 * doc/find.texi (Size Directives): Compare %b with %s/512, not
418 %s/1024. This fixes (again) Savannah bug #19596.
419 * NEWS: mention the fix.
421 Avoid using the non-portable function putw().
422 * locate/locatedb.h: Declare putword().
423 * locate/frcode.c: Include <stdbool.h> as locatedb.h now requires
425 * locate/code.c (main): Use putword() rather than putw(), because
426 the latter was removed from SUSv3. This fixes Savannah bug #19980.
427 Also include <stdbool.h> as locatedb.h now requires this.
428 * locate/word_io.c (putword): Define the new function putword.
430 Ensure that <config.h> is included before any system header
431 * find/defs.h: Do not include <config.h> from "defs.h". Instead
432 just complain if it was not already included, since it needs to
433 be included first of all, even before system headers (in case
434 gnulib had replaced a system header). Check
435 ALREADY_INCLUDED_CONFIG_H to determine this.
436 * configure.in: Always define ALREADY_INCLUDED_CONFIG_H in
438 * find/find.c: Include config.h before defs.h.
439 * find/finddata.c: ditto.
440 * find/fstfind.c: ditto.
441 * find/parser.c: ditto.
442 * find/pred.c: ditto.
444 * find/tree.c: ditto (fixing Savannah bug #20128).
446 * m4/noreturn.m4 (jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN): Use AC_LANG_PROGRAM
447 inside AC_COMPILE_IFELSE.
449 * doc/find.texi (Security Considerations for locate): Discuss in
450 detail the buffer overrun when reading old-format locate
451 databases. This is CVE reference CVE-2007-2452.
453 2007-06-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
455 Guess the byte-order of old-format locate databases.
456 * locate/word_io.c (getword): Make the endian_state_flag parameter
457 an enum rather than an int. If we are in the initial ("don't
458 know") byte-order guessing state and the swapped value is out of
459 range, use this as evidence that the byte order is native.
460 * locate/locatedb.h: Declare getword accordingly.
461 * locate/locate.c (struct process_data): Added endian_state
462 member, which remembers for us what the big/little endian order
463 guessing state is when we read an old-format database.
464 (visit_old_format): Use the procdata.endian_state rather than a
465 local variable, so that the information can persist across calls.
466 (i_am_little_endian): Locate figures out if we needed to byteswap
467 the words in an old-format database, but that is an implementation
468 detail. Therefore we figure out our own byte order so that we can
469 produce a more relevant message for --statistics. The
470 i_am_little_endian() returns nonzero if the current host has
471 little-endian byte order.
472 (search_one_database): Report the byte-order of old-format
475 2007-06-04 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
477 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_XO, EXTRA_DIST_EXP):
478 Added old_prefix.exp and old_prefix.xo, a new test case for long
479 shared rpefixes with the old database format.
481 * locate/locate.c (visit_old_format): Use getword() from word_io.c
482 instead of getw(), because getw() is not in POSIX.
483 * locate/word_io.c: New file, providing replacement for getw().
484 * locate/locatedb.h: Declare getword()
485 * locate/Makefile.am (locate_SOURCES): Added word_io.c
487 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp (locate_start): Make the
488 failure messages slightly more explicit; indicate what went wrong
491 2007-06-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
493 * locate/locate.c (visit_old_format, extend, toolong): Extend the
494 buffer used to build the current pathname when reading an
495 old-format database. The new function extend is called to do
496 this. The new function toolong is called to report a fatal error
497 when the buffer size would otherwise exceed SIZE_MAX. This fixes
498 Savannah bug #20014, which is a security-related problem with the
499 CVE identifier CVE-2007-2452.
501 * configure.in: Determine if the setgroups function is available,
502 and set HAVE_SETGROUPS if so.
503 * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): Call setgroups() only if
504 HAVE_SETGROUPS indicates that it is available. This fixes
507 2007-05-31 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
509 * find/parser.c (parse_time): Once we have determined the
510 comparison type, restore the original time argument since
511 get_relative_timestamp() also wants to see it. This fixes
514 2007-05-31 Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> (trivial change)
516 * find/parser.c (parse_group): Correct typo in error message.
517 (check_path_safety): same
519 2007-05-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
521 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import sys_stat.
522 (gnulib_version): Update to 2007-05-26. This fixes a compilation
523 error in stdlib.h with the DEC C compiler. This fixes Savannah
526 * find/parser.c (safe_atoi): New function, like atoi, but which
527 calls error(1, ...) when the argument is invalid or out of range.
528 (parse_group): Use safe_atoi.
529 (insert_depthspec): Use safe_atoi
530 (parse_user): Use safe_atoi
532 * configure.in: Check for fabs in libm (fixing a compilation error
535 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import the wcwidth module to
536 provide it on those systems (such as BeOS) which lack it.
538 * find/pred.c (file_sparseness): If st_blocks is not present in
539 struct stat, the file has a sparseness of 1.0.
541 * doc/find.texi (Size Directives): Document the %S format
542 directive for -printf.
544 * find/pred.c (mode_to_filetype): Don't use S_IFSOCK on systems
545 which lack that macro. POSIX systems are allowed to lack
546 sockets (it's an XSI extension).
547 (file_sparseness): If struct stat lacks st_blocks, assume all
548 files have a spearseness of 1.0.
550 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Import fchdir inorder to fix an
551 undefined-symbol error for fchdir on BeOS.
553 2007-05-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
555 Code refactoring in locate.
556 * locate/locate.c (visit): New function, into which we factor out
557 the traversal of the inspector list.
558 (process_simple): Use visit().
559 (process_or): Use visit().
560 (process_and): Use visit().
562 Speed improvements in locate for unibyte locales.
563 * locate/locate.c (visit_substring_match_nocasefold_wide): Renamed
564 from visit_substring_match_nocasefold.
565 (visit_substring_match_casefold_wide): Renamed from
566 visit_substring_match_casefold.
567 (visit_substring_match_casefold_narrow): Special case of
568 visit_substring_match_casefold_wide which we use for unibyte
569 locales; we use strcasestr() rather than mbscasestr().
570 (visit_substring_match_nocasefold_narrow): Ditto, using strstr()
573 * find/parser.c (parse_gid): Return an explicit boolean constant
574 rather than automatically converting from a pointer, because the
575 gnulib substitute for bool (or _Bool) in c89 environments lacking
576 bool does not support that conversion. One affected system is Sun
577 WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15 C 5.0 on Solaris 7. This is
578 Savannah bug #19970, reported by Nelson Beebe.
580 (parse_links): Ditto.
582 (check_path_safety): declarations need to go before code, not
583 interspersed. Move declaration of char* s.
585 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/rc-125.exp: Explain Savannah bug
586 #19969. This bug is not yet fixed.
588 * find/defs.h: #include <stdint_.h>, for uintmax_t. This should
589 fix a compilation error on DEC C V5.9-005 on Digital UNIX V4.0F
590 (Rev. 1229). This is Savannah bug #19965, reported by Nelson
593 * find/defs.h: Don't include <errno.h>, since it is not needed in
594 the header file itself. The "extern int errno;" declaration is
596 * find/parser.c: Include <errno.h>
600 2007-05-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
602 * find/util.c (check_nofollow): If O_NOFOLLOW is defined but 0,
603 act as if it is undefined. This should prevent a runtime
604 assertion failure on IRIX 6.5. This fixes Savannah bug #19948,
605 reported by Nelson Beebe.
607 * m4/noreturn.m4: New file, testing for support of __attribute__
608 ((__noreturn__)). Defines jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN and sets
609 HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
610 * configure.in: Call jy_AC_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN.
611 * find/defs.h (ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN): Define to nothing if
612 HAVE_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN is not set in config.h. This should fix a
613 compilation error with non-GCC compilers. This is Savannah bug
614 #19967, reported by Nelson Beebe.
616 * configure.in (FINDLIBS): Update FINDLIBS to link against -lm for
617 modf. This fixed a link error on HP-UX. This fixes Savannah
618 bug #19966, reported by Nelson Beebe.
619 * find/Makefile.am (LDADD): Use @FINDLIBS@
621 2007-05-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
625 * build-aux/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Added man-lint.sh.
627 * locate/locate.c (drop_privs): pass the correct list of groups to
628 setgroups(). Previously, if root invoked locate, their group ID
629 would have been set to a random value. The same bug also caused
630 an array overrun past the end of the local array groups[]. The
631 variable which gets overwritten by the buffer overrun on x86 is
632 'what'. The value of that variable is always changed before it is
633 used, and so I believe that this buffer overrun will not cause a
634 crash. The only effect of the bug therefore would be for locate
635 to change group to a random group ID since groups[0] is
636 uninitialised. On my test system this random group ID is 0
637 anyway. The effect does not depend on any externally-controllable
638 information, so it is unlikely this is exploitable. This bug is
639 detailed as bug# 19923.
641 2007-05-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
643 * find/find.1: Spurious .R directives (.R is not a directive)
644 should be .B. This fixes Savannah bug #19871.
645 * build-aux/man-lint.sh: New file; verifies that the specified
646 manual pages do not provoke error messages from troff. This is
647 used to detect further occurrences of Savannah bug #19871.
648 * find/Makefile.am (dist-hook): Run findutils-check-manpages,
649 which invokes man-lint.sh.
650 * locate/Makefile.am (dist-hook): ditto
651 * xargs/Makefile.am (dist-hook): ditto
653 * .cvsignore: Ignore ylwrap, which automake-1.10 wants us to have
654 a copy of for some reason
656 * import-gnulib.sh (main): New option -a which just runs the
657 autotools without reimporting gnulib.
659 * Makefile.am (jy-regex-fix): The previous explanatory comment
660 refers to the jy-regex-fix target, not to dist-hook, so it has
663 2007-05-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
665 * find/defs.h (struct predicate.args): str is now const.
667 * find/parser.c (get_comp_type): get_comp_type now takes a const
670 (get_relative_timestamp): ditto. Also use collect_arg().
671 (collect_arg_stat_info): New function; collects a command-line
672 argument and returns its xstat information, in one go.
673 error(1,...) is called if the stat fails.
674 (parse_anewer): Use collect_arg().
675 (parse_cnewer): ditto
676 (parse_fprint): ditto
677 (parse_fstype): ditto
679 (parse_ilname): ditto
681 (parse_iwholename): ditto
683 (insert_depthspec): ditto
686 (parse_wholename): ditto
688 (parse_regextype): ditto
689 (insert_regex): ditto
690 (parse_samefile): ditto
695 (parse_size): When the size argument is invalid but consists only
696 of a valid suffix char, avoid issuing an error message about a
697 blank argument. Append the suffix letter again.
698 (parse_xdev, parse_ignore_race, parse_noignore_race, parse_warn,
699 parse_xtype): Remove casts to void for some function parameters
700 that were, in fact, used.
702 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint-unwritable.exp: new test
703 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint0_stdout.exp: new test
704 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/fprint0_stdout.xo: new test
705 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/mindepth-arg.exp: new test
706 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/mindepth-arg.xo: new test
707 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/mindepth-badarg.exp: new test
708 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/print_stdout.exp: new test
709 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/print_stdout.xo: new test
710 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/samefile-missing.exp: new test
711 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/samefile-p-brokenlink.exp: new test
712 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/samefile-p-brokenlink.xo: new test
713 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/used-invarg.exp: new test
714 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/used-missing.exp: new test
715 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/user-invalid.exp: new test
716 * find/testsuite/find.posix/group-empty.exp: new test
717 * find/testsuite/find.posix/group-missing.exp: new test
718 * find/testsuite/find.posix/name-missing.exp: new test
719 * find/testsuite/find.posix/size-invalid.exp: new test
720 * find/testsuite/find.posix/size-missing.exp: new test
721 * find/testsuite/find.posix/typearg.exp: new test
722 * find/testsuite/find.posix/user-empty.exp: new test
723 * find/testsuite/find.posix/user-missing.exp: new test
725 2007-05-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
727 * find/tree.c: (costlookup): Added pred_fls to the optimiser's
728 predicate cost lookup table.
730 * lib/printquoted.c (print_quoted): Change return value from void
731 to int, to allow the caller to detect failures.
732 * lib/printquoted.h (print_quoted): Change declaration
735 * find/defs.h (struct format_val): Incldue a 'filename' member so
736 that we can provide more useful error messages (e.g. when we fail
737 to flush or close an output file).
738 (nonfatal_file_error): declare new function.
740 * find/util.c (traverse_tree): Utility function which calls a
741 callback on every node of the parse tree.
742 (flush_and_close_output_files): Flush all output streams. Close
743 all output files. Report any errors.
744 (cleanup): Use traverse_tree() to invoke
745 complete_pending_execdirs().
746 (report_file_err): refactored error reporting function, extracted
747 from fatal_file_error.
748 (nonfatal_file_error): New function.
750 * find/pred.c (checked_fprintf): New function, which performa an
751 fprinf(), and checkes the result. If the operation resulted in an
752 error, a nonfatal error message is issued.
753 (checked_print_quoted): Ditto, for print_quoted rather than
755 (checked_fwrite): Ditto for fwrite instead of fprintf.
756 (checked_fflush): Ditto for fflush
757 (do_fprintf): Use the checked_*() functions rather than their
758 direct counterparts, to ensure that I/O errors are detected. This
759 fixes Savannah bug #19416.
760 (pred_fls): Use args.printf_vec instead of args.stream, which has
762 (pred_ls): just call pred_fls.
763 (pred_fprint0): use args.printf_vec, instead of the now removed
765 (pred_print0): just call pred_fprint0
767 * find/parser.c: (insert_fprintf): Make the caller collect the
768 format argument from the argument list.
769 (open_output_file): Enhance to set up defaults in
770 our_pred->args.printf_vec as well as opening the output file.
771 Also record the filename for possible later use in an error
773 (collect_arg): Convenience function for collecting an argument
774 from the argument list.
775 (insert_fls): Refactored the body of parse_fls out so that
777 (parse_fls): call insert_fls.
779 (parse_fprint): Instead of setting up our_pred->args.printf_vec
780 manually, call open_output_file() to do it.
781 (parse_print): Same, but by calling open_stdout().
782 (insert_fprint): Make the caller collect the filename argument,
783 and delegate the setup of our_pred->args.printf_vec to either
784 open_output_file() (for parse_fprint and parse_fprint0) or
785 open_stdout (parse_print0).
786 (parse_fprint0): Use collect_arg().
787 (parse_print0): Use insert_fprint(), just like parse_fprint0.
788 (parse_printf): Use collect_arg().
789 (parse_fprintf): Use collect_arg().
791 2007-05-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
795 * find/parser.c (parse_samefile): Hold a file descriptor open on
796 the reference file in order to prevent pred_samefile getting
797 fooled by inode reuse. Pay attention to race conditions on
798 systems lacking O_NOFOLLOW when the -P option is in force. This
799 fixes Savannah bug #19806.
801 * find/defs.h (struct samefile_file_id): New struct, like dir_id
802 but including a file descriptor on the reference file.
804 * find/pred.c (pred_type): -type should return false if the file
805 has mode 00000, as opposed to having an assertion failure. This
806 fixes Savannah bug #16378.
808 * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): Issue a warning message if
809 none of the mode bits are set for a file (i.e. st_mode==00000).
810 * find/util.c (get_statinfo): ditto
811 * find/util.c (hook_fstatat): Introduced debug code (normally
812 disabled) for testing Savannah bug #16378.
814 2007-05-01 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
816 * find/find.c (wd_sanity_check): corrected the type of %ld fprintf
817 arguments in error messages.
818 * find/fstype.c: include "error.h" for the declaratio of error().
819 * find/ftsfind.c: include "error.h" for the declaratio of
820 error(). Include dircallback.h for the correct declararion of
822 * find/parser.c: include getdate.h (for declaration of getdate)
823 and error.h (for the declaration of error).
824 (find_parser): Removed unused variable p.
825 * find/pred.c (pred_timewindow): Removed unused variable delta.
826 (do_fprintf): Removed unused variable cc.
827 * find/tree.c: Include error.h (for the declaration of error()).
828 (build_expression_tree): removed sourious extra arguments in call
830 * find/util.c: include error.h.
831 * lib/buildcmd.h (get_line_max): Comment out unused function.
832 * lib/listfile.c: Include dircallback.h.
833 * locate/code.c: Include errno.h, erorr.h, progname.h and
835 (inerr): New function for reporting read errors.
836 (outerr): New function for reporting output errors.
837 (main): Call inerror when fgets fails. Call outerr when fwrite
838 or putc or putw fails.
839 * locate/frcode.c (put_short): Return boolean value indicating
841 (outerr): New function for reporting write errors.
842 (main): Call outerr if call to putc() or puts() or put_short()
844 * locate/locate.c (search_one_database): diagnose corruption if a
845 traditional-style database is too short to include a complete
848 2007-04-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
850 * find/defs.h: Change all predicate functions to take a const
851 char* argument as the pathname, not a char*. Modify the parser
852 table definition accordingly.
853 * find/parser.c: Ditto
855 * find/pred.c (do_fprintf): copy the pathname string for the %H
856 and %h cases, since we can no longer modify the string in place.
857 * lib/listfile.c (print_name, list_file,
858 print_name_without_quoting, print_name_with_quoting): Use const
859 char * param for pathname.
860 * lib/listfile.h (list_file): Use const char * param for
863 2007-04-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
865 * find/defs.h: Declare fatal_file_error(), a function for
866 reporting immediately-fatal file errors, which appropriately
867 quotes the file name. The function does not return. Also define
868 ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN. Record the currently-required quoting style
871 * find/find.c, find/ftsfind.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c,
872 find/util.c: Call fatal_file_error() for fatal file errors. Use
873 quotearg_n_style() to quote filenames which are used in error
874 message that aren't fatal. Use options.err_quoting_style as the
875 quoting style. This fixes Savannah bug #18203.
876 * locate/locate.c: ditto
877 * xargs/xargs.c: ditto
879 * lib/listfile.c: To use alloca, just #include <alloca.h>. Gnulib
880 handles the rest. Also these days, <stdlib.h> and <string.h> can
881 just be included unconditionally.
882 * lib/qmark.c: Fixed comment on first line describing the module.
884 2007-04-29 Michael Haubenwallner <michael.haubenwallner@salomon.at> (Trivial Change)
886 * find/defs.h (pred_open) Rename to pred_openparen to avoid
887 problems with the macrtos which build the parser tabnles on
888 platforms where 'open' is in fact a macro whcih expands to
889 open64. The problem was that token pasting put pred_open64 into
890 the parser table, but the function was still defined as
891 parse_open. This fixes Savannah bug #19371.
893 * find/parser.c (parse_open, parse_close): ditto. Also change
894 repferences to pred_open and pred_close similarly.
895 * find/parser.c (parse_openparen, parse_closeparen): ditto
897 2007-04-28 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
899 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletedir.exp,
900 find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletedir.xo: New test.
901 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletefile.exp,
902 find/testsuite/find.gnu/deletefile.xo: New test.
903 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute the new tests
904 deletefile.exp and deletedir,exp, with their expected-output (.xo)
906 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_start): Add a new "setup"
907 parameter called just before each time find is invoked. This
908 allows last-minute tasks to be performed. This feature is
909 essential for find commands that modify the filesystem, since
910 otherwise we cannot use our strategy of invoking both binaries at
911 each optimisation level.
913 * find/util.c (optionh_stat, optionp_stat, optionl_stat): Assert
914 that state.cwd_dir_fd is valid.
916 * find/parser.c (parse_delete): Set need_stat to false, since we
917 don't need the stat information in pred_delete.
918 * find/pred.c (pred_delete): If unlinkat() with a zero flags
919 parameter fails with errno==EISDIR, just try again with
920 flags=AT_REMOVEDIR. That way we normally avoid the cost of a
921 stat. If we happen to have the stat information to hand anyway,
922 we make sure we get it right the first time.
924 * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_init_controlinfo): Eliminate confusing extra
925 variable arg_max. Add return value
926 BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM for the case where the
927 environment itself is not too large, but the required headroom
928 cannot also be accomodated. The caller now passes in the amount
929 of headroom required.
930 (bc_use_sensible_arg_max): Use the environment size consistently;
931 this is accounted for already in posix_arg_size_max, so there is
932 no need to re-measure the size of the environment.
933 * lib/buildcmd.h: Define BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM and
934 add the headroom parameter to the prototype of bc_init_controlinfo().
935 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Define XARGS_POSIX_HEADROOM as 2048 and
936 use that symbolic value. Pass XARGS_POSIX_HEADROOM to
937 bc_init_controlinfo(). Handle the case where
938 BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM is returned by
939 bc_init_controlinfo().
940 * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): Pass the required headroom to
941 bc_init_controlinfo() and handle the error return
942 BC_INIT_CANNOT_ACCOMODATE_HEADROOM.
944 * xargs/xargs.1: Correct the description of the default value and
945 maximum value for the -s option of xargs.
947 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Modify the assertions not to assume that
948 bc_ctl.arg_max is 2KiB less than ARG_MAX, since sysconfig() may
949 have returned a value for _SC_ARG_MAX which is greater. For
950 example, AIX 5.3 can do this. This should fix Savannah bug
953 2007-04-25 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
955 * find/tree.c (predlist_dump, predlist_merge_nosort): These
956 functions were unused and commented out. Removed.
957 (mark_stat) No longer used. Removed.
958 (mark_type) No longer used. Removed.
960 * find/parser.c (new_insert_exec_ok): When checking for {} in the
961 arguments to -exec..., use mbsstr() rather than strstr() in order
962 to cope bettwe with multibyte locales.
964 * lib/buildcmd.c: Don't define mbsstr() locally. Instead, call
967 2007-04-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
969 * lib/buildcmd.c: Added some comments outlining how we might
970 change the implementation to support figuring out the real ARG_MAX
973 2007-04-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
975 * find/defs.h (struct predicate_performance_info): New data
976 structure for holding perofmance statistics.
977 (struct predicate: include predicate_performance_info
978 (apply_predicate): change from macro to function
979 (pred_is): new macro, for predicate identity testing
980 (enum DebugOption): Added DebugSuccessRates
981 * find/find.1: Document option "-D rates" which turns on
983 * doc/find.texi: ditto
984 * find.c (main): Call show_success_rates() before exiting.
985 (apply_predicate): remove the macro defintion, declare equivalent
987 * find/ftsfind.c (main): Call show_success_rates() before
988 exiting. Use apply_predicate().
989 (show_outstanding_execdirs): use pred_is().
993 2007-04-22 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
995 * xargs/xargs.c (main): Don't assume LINE_MAX exists (i.e. is
998 * locate/updatedb.sh (PRUNEPATHS): Exclude /proc by default.
1000 2007-04-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1002 * doc/Makefile.am: When cross-compiling, 'make clean' should not
1003 delete doc/regexprops.texi, becaue we can't regenerate it. Fixes
1004 Savannah bug #19658.
1006 * locate/Makefile.am (BUILT_SOURCES): Automatically generate
1007 dblocation.texi, which records the default database location.
1008 * doc/find.texi: Collect the default database location from
1009 ../locate/dblocation.texi, and use LOCATE_DB in various places.
1010 Document the fact that updatedb can generate slocate-compatible
1011 databases. Document the --dbformat option of updatedb.
1012 * locate/frcode.c (main): Implemented the -S option which allows the
1013 generation of an slocate secure database.
1014 * locate/updatedb.sh: New option --dbformat which selects which
1015 database format to use.
1016 * locate/updatedb.1 (--dbformat): Document the new option.
1019 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: fixed a typo which prevented
1020 the test correctly being skipped when run as root. This re-fixes
1021 Savannah bug# 18414, I hope.
1023 2007-04-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1027 * find/locate/locatedb.5: Clarifications to the description of the
1028 LOCATE02 format. Organised the material under a number of
1029 headings. Documented the slocate database format.
1031 2007-04-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1033 * find/testuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): added
1034 find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19617.exp
1036 2007-04-20 Maxim V. Dziumanenko <dziumanenko@gmail.com>
1038 * po/uk.po: New Ukranian translation.
1039 * configure.in: Added "uk" for Ukranian.
1041 2007-04-19 Peter Breitenlohner <peb@mppmu.mpg.de> (Trivial change)
1043 * locate/bigram.c (main): Set the initial pathname to the empty
1044 string, to avoid decompression problems if the initial pathname
1045 begins with a space. This fixes Savannah bug #19484.
1046 * locate/code.c (main): ditto
1048 2007-04-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1050 * locate/updatedb.1 (--help): Option name should be bold, not
1053 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.exp: Avoid running
1054 -execdir based tests if "." is on $PATH. Fixes Savannah bug
1056 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-in-unreadable.exp: ditto
1058 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (touch): New procedure touch,
1059 replacing "exec touch" for greater efficiency.
1060 * find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.exp: Change "exec touch" to
1062 * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions1.exp: ditto
1063 * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions2.exp: ditto
1064 * find/testsuite/find.posix/files-not-expressions3.exp: ditto
1065 * find/testsuite/find.posix/links.exp: ditto
1066 * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-vanilla.exp: ditto
1067 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-15235.exp: ditto
1068 * /find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19613.exp: ditto
1070 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp: Fix savannah bug #18414 by
1071 skipping the test if the user can read any file (e.g. is root or
1072 is an Admin user under Cygwin).
1074 2007-04-17 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1076 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Use the 2007-04-17
1077 version of gnulib to fix a compilation error on Cygwin. This
1078 fixes Savannah bug #19619.
1080 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19605.exp: New test, for
1081 Savannah bug #19605.
1082 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-19617.exp: New test, for
1083 Savannah bug #19617.
1084 * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): if fts_read() returns
1085 enf->fts_info==FTS_NS, check for and diagnose a symbolic link
1086 loop. This fixes Savannah bugs #19605 and #19617.
1088 * find/find.c (process_path): collect the stat information for
1089 directories even if we already have the mode information, because
1090 we need to use the members st_nlink and st_rdev in for the leaf
1091 optimisation and loop detection, respectively. This fixes
1092 Savannah bug #19616.
1094 * find/ftsfind.c (is_fts_enabled): Return a copy of ftsoptions,
1095 not a copy of the (uninitialised) input argument. This fixes
1096 Savannah bug #19615.
1098 * find/ftsfind.c (consider_visiting): If fts_read() returned
1099 FTS_NS, then remember that the stat information is not valid, and
1100 therefore don't set state.have_type or state.have_stat. This
1101 fixes Savannah bug #19613.
1103 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-91613.exp,
1104 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sv-bug-91613.xo: New test for Savannah
1105 bug 19613 (assertion failure on symbolic link loop).
1107 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Correctly diagnose a test case
1108 which fails because find was expected to fail and instead
1110 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.exp: The child
1111 process in this test should return non-zero, not zero. Therefore
1112 run "false" instead of "true".
1114 2007-04-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1118 * find/find.1: "-printf %b": blocks are 512 bytes. Fixes
1119 Savannah bug #19596.
1121 * doc/Makefile.am (regexprops.texi): Do not use $(RM) because many
1122 versions od make do not set it, and so it expands to nothing.
1123 This avoids suprious emission of the regexprops.texi file to stdout.
1125 * find/find.c (main, safely_chdir_lstat, safely_chdir_nofollow):
1126 Only use O_LARGEFILE if it is #defined (NetBSD-3.1 does not define
1128 * find/ftsfind.c (main): ditto
1129 * find/pred.c (pred_empty, prep_child_for_exec): ditto
1132 * import-gnulib.config: Update to gnuliv 2007-04-14.
1134 * lib/Makefile.am, import-gnulib.sh: Create lib/gnulib-version.c
1135 in import-gnulib.sh, not in lib/Makefile.
1137 * build-aux/Makefile.am: New file; distribute check-tstfiles.sh.
1139 * locate/Makefile.am: mkinstalldirs is now in build-aux.
1141 * doc/Makefile.am: We also need getdate.texi.
1143 2007-04-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1145 * doc/.cvsignore: Ignore getdate.texi
1147 * find/defs.h: #include "buildcmd.h" near the top of the file, not
1150 * all: Pass O_LARGEFILE when opening directories.
1152 * all: Changes to allow us to use the FTS_CWDFD mode of fts().
1153 These are quite extensive changes, and are detailed below.
1155 * find/defs.h (struct exec_val): New member dirfd, the directory
1156 in which the exec should take place.
1157 (is_fts_enabled): Tell the caller which flags are passed to
1159 (get_start_dirfd): New function. Returns value of start_desc.
1160 (get_current_dirfd): New function. Returns the fd of the
1161 directory fts is currently traversing. If this is the current
1162 directory, AT_FDCWD is returned.
1163 (complete_pending_execdirs): takes a new argument, indicating
1164 where the exec is to take place. Ugh.
1165 (get_info): the file name is taken from state.rel_pathname, so
1166 we don't need it as a function argument.
1167 (enum DebugOption): Added DebugExec ("-D exec").
1168 (struct state): Added cwd_dir_fd, the directory we are examining
1169 with fts(). If fts() is not in use, this is AT_FDCWD. Also added
1170 execdirs_outstanding, which is a boolean which tells us if there
1171 are any not-yet-execed -execdir or -okdir actions (with +). This
1172 is not really used yet.
1173 * find/ftsfind.c (set_close_on_exec): New function.
1174 (get_current_dirfd): Return an fd open on the directory that fts()
1175 is currently examining.
1176 (left_dir): Signal that our previous ides of which dirctory fts is
1177 searching is now out of date.
1178 (inside_dir): Indicate which directory fts is now searching.
1179 (complete_execdirs_cb): Callback for run_in_dir() to complete
1180 pending execdirs in this directory.
1181 (show_outstanding_execdirs): Supports "-D exec"
1182 consider_visiting(): Do not allow building-up of pending execdirs,
1183 as a workaround to Savannah bug #18466.
1184 (ftsoptions): Make this a static module variable.
1185 * find/parser.c (insert_exec_ok): New parameter describing which
1186 directory the exec should occur in.
1187 (parse_version): for FTS, add a list of options being used.
1188 * find/pred.c (pred_and, pred_comma): No need to pass the relative
1189 path name to get_info(), it can pull it from state.rel_pathname.
1190 (pred_delete): use unlinkat().
1191 (pred_empty): use openat().
1192 (new_impl_pred_exec): Accept an fd parameter describing where the
1193 exec is to take place.
1194 (pred_executable, pred_writable, pred_readable): Use run_in_dir()
1195 to ensure that access() is called in a working directory which is
1196 suitable for the pathname we pass in.
1197 (prep_child_for_exec): In the child process, change to the
1198 appropriate directory becore the exec().
1199 * find/util.c (debugassoc): Support "-D exec".
1200 (get_info): No longer need to pass the relative path to
1202 (do_complete_pending_execdirs): Refactored body of what used to be
1203 complete_pending_execdirs().
1204 (complete_pending_execdirs): Pull body out into
1205 do_complete_pending_execdirs() and call that only if there is work
1207 (fallback_stat, optionh_stat, optionp_stat, optionl_stat): Use fstatat().
1208 (get_start_dirfd): New access function for starting_desc.
1209 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.exp: New test
1210 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-hier.xo: Expected outut for new test
1211 * lib/dircallback.c, lib/dircallback.h: New function,
1212 run_in_dir(), which runs a callback function in a specified
1214 * lib/listfile.c: Use run_in_dir() to call readlink() in the right
1216 (get_link_name_at): Call get_link_name_cb via run_in_dir.
1217 (get_link_name_cb): New callback function, wrappting
1220 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-pwd.exp: Since we have disabled
1221 thebuilding-up of command lines for -execdir, Savannah bug #18466
1222 has been neutralised (but not fixed - we just don't allow the
1223 problem circumstance to occur).
1225 2007-04-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1227 * doc/find.texi: Change fully-specified @node directives to
1228 single-argument @node directives in order to accomodate the
1229 inclusion of getdate.texi.
1231 * doc/find.texi: Document -newerXY.
1233 * doc/find.texi (Security Considerations): updated to describe
1234 differences in the fts-based implementation.
1236 * find/find.1: Indicate that testing the birth time where this is
1237 not supported produces a negative result for files where the birth
1238 time is not known (or a fatal error if the file of interest is a
1241 2007-04-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1243 * configure.in: Set @AUXDIR@ (to the location of the build-aux
1245 * build-aux/check-testfiles.sh: New script, which checks that all
1246 the DejaGnu test files have been included in the distribution and
1247 (more helpfully) lists any that are missing.
1248 * Makefile.am (findutils-check-testfiles): Use
1249 build-aux/check-testfiles.sh.
1250 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): distribute
1251 locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/sv-bug-14535.exp.
1253 * config.rpath, depcomp, missing: Moved into build-aux/.
1254 * configure.in(AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR): Find aux files in $SRCDIR/build-aux,
1257 2007-03-31 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1259 * find/tree.c (build_expression_tree): Issue more specific error
1260 messages; distinguish the case where the predicate is invalid from
1261 the cases where a required argument is missing, and a supplied
1262 argument is invalid.
1264 * import-gnulib.config (gnulib_version): Update to 2007-03-30
1267 2007-03-28 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1269 * find/defs.h (set_stat_placeholders): utility function for
1270 initialising the sturct stat fields that NetBSD doesn't always set
1271 (like st_birthtime where the file is on a filesystem not
1272 supporting birthtime).
1273 * find/util.c: set_stat_placeholders(): new function
1274 (get_statinfo): Call set_stat_placeholders().
1275 (optionh_stat, optionl_stat, optionp_stat): ditto
1276 * find/find.c (main, wd_sanity_check, safely_chdir_lstat,
1277 process_dir): use set_stat_placeholders().
1278 * find/parser.c (parse_anewer, parse_cnewer, parse_newer,
1279 parse_newerXY): ditto.
1280 (get_stat_Ytime): Support birth time ('B').
1281 (parse_newerXY): Support st_birthtime.
1282 * find/fstype.c (set_fstype_devno): Use set_stat_placeholders().
1283 * find/pred.c (pred_xtype): Use set_stat_placeholders().
1284 (pred_newerXY): Support birth time.
1285 (pred_fprintf, format_date): ditto ("%Bx").
1287 2007-03-25 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1289 * xargs/xargs.c (main): For "xargs --show-limits" where stdin is a
1290 terminal, warn the user that the program specified (or /bin/echo)
1291 will be run at least once, if that is what will happen.
1293 2007-03-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1295 * import-gnulib.sh: Added option -d, allowing the user to use a
1296 local version of gnulib, perhaps because they have local changes.
1298 2007-03-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1300 * find/parser.c (parse_quit): Estimated success rate of -quit is
1303 2007-03-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1305 * find/find.1 (TESTS): Document -newerXY, indicate that reference
1306 files are only examined once.

1308 (BUGS): Indicate that -ok ignores LC_COLLATE.
1310 2007-03-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1312 * import-gnulib.config: (gnulib_version): Use gnulib version
1314 (modules): Added getdate
1316 * find/Makefile.am (LDADD): Added @LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME@ for
1317 clock_gettime(), if it is available.
1319 * find/defs.h: (enum xval): New enumeration, representing the
1320 value of X used in the -newerXY test. It is stored in the reftime
1321 member of 'union args'.
1322 (struct predicate): reftime is also used by -newerXY.
1323 (enum arg_type): Added ARG_SPECIAL_PARSE for -newerXY, because the
1324 parsing function needs to look at the name of the test.
1325 (struct options): start_time is now a struct timespec, not a
1328 * find/parser.c: (parse_newerXY): New parsing function for
1329 -newerXY, a feature copied from FreeBSD (also present other BSD
1330 implementations too)
1331 (get_stat_Ytime): New function; returns st_atime, st_mtime or
1332 st_ctime from struct stat, as a timespec, as required according to
1333 the value of Y in -newerXY.
1334 (found_parser): Factored the tail out of find_parser.
1335 (find_parser): Moved tail into found_parser. Add special handling
1337 (do_parse_xmin): New argument xv, indicating the value to which
1338 predicate->reftime.xval should be set.
1339 (parse_amin): Pass XVAL_ATIME to do_parse_xmin.
1340 (parse_cmin): Pass XVAL_CTIME to do_parse_xmin.
1341 (parse_mmin): Pass XVAL_MTIME to do_parse_xmin.
1342 (parse_newer): Set args.reftime.xval to XVAL_MTIME.
1344 * find/pred.c (pred_table): added pred_XY.
1345 (pred_fls): options.start_time is now a struct timespec, so just
1346 pass the tv_sec member to list_file.
1348 (pred_newerXY): New function, implementing -newerXY.
1350 * find/tree.c (costlookup): pred_newerXY needs stat information.
1351 (build_expression_tree): For predicates of type ARG_SPECIAL_PARSE,
1352 pass them in the name of the predicate (that is, don't advance
1355 * find/util.c (now): New function for setting options.start_time.
1356 Use nanoseconds where it is available.
1357 (set_option_defaults): Use now() rather than time().
1359 2007-03-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1361 * import-gnulib.sh: Pass --with-tests to gnulib-tool so that relevant
1362 gnulib unit tests are built and are run for "make check".
1364 * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add tests/Makefile (the makefile
1365 for the gnulib unit tests).
1367 * Makefile.am: Add 'tests' to SUBDIRS.
1369 * .cvsignore: Add 'tests'.
1371 * import-gnulib.config (modules): Also use Gnulib modules
1372 mbscasestr and mbsstr in order to perform correct string searching
1373 in multibyte strings, in order to fix Savannah bug #14535.
1375 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/sv-bug-14535.exp: new test case for
1376 Savannah bug #14535.
1378 * locale/locate.c (visit_substring_match_nocasefold): Use mbsstr
1379 rather than strstr, in order to correctly support multibyte
1381 (visit_substring_match_casefold): Use mbscasestr rather than
1382 strstr in order to correctly support case-folding in a multibyte
1383 environment (e.g. with UTF-8 characters outside the normal ASCII
1384 range). This fixes Savannah bug #14535.
1385 (struct casefolder): No longer needed, removed
1386 (visit_casefold): No longer needed, removed.
1387 (lc_strcpy): No longer needed, removed.
1388 (search_one_database): Removed redundant variable need_fold and
1389 the code which used to set it. It had controlled the adding of
1390 the visitor function visit_casefold, but that function itself is
1391 no longer required. Also there is now no need to pass in a
1392 lower-case argument to visit_substring_match_casefold, so don't
1393 pass that in the context argument.
1395 * locate/locate.c (usage): Fixed typo.
1397 2007-03-01 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1399 * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): Document the construct

1412 * lib/gnulib-version.h, lib/gnulib-version.sh: New files; code for
1413 reporting which version of Gnulib we built findutils from.
1415 * lib/Makefile.am: Build gnulib-version.c out of
1416 ./gnulib-version.config by using lib/gnulib-version.sh.
1418 * Makefile.am: Ship import-gnulib.config and import-gnulib.sh.
1420 * .cvsignore: Ignore gnulib-cvs
1422 * lib/.cvsignore: Ignore gnulib-version.c
1424 * find/parser.c, locate/code.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
1425 Report which version of Gnulib we were built from.
1427 2007-02-25 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1429 * find/find.c (process_dir): Removed duplicated (shadow)
1430 declaration of did_stat. Assert that we did not use subdirs_left
1431 if subdirs_unreliable is true.
1433 * find/parser.c (parse_size): Removed unused variable rate.
1434 (parse_time): Removed unused variable num_days_approx.
1435 (get_num): Removed unused variables ok and suffixes.
1437 * find/pred.c (do_fprintf): Indicate that the function needs a
1438 return value (referring to Savannah bug #19146).
1440 * find/tree.c (predlist_dump): Commented out unused function
1441 (predlist_merge_nosort): Commented out unused function
1442 (getrate): Returns type is float, so return 1.0f not 1.0.
1443 (calculate_derived_rates): Removed unused variable rate. Use a
1444 switch statement rater than ifs.
1446 * find/util.c (usage): Removed unused variable i.
1448 * lib/buildcmd.c (bc_do_insert): Removed unused variable
1450 (bc_init_controlinfo): annotate a line (with #warning) which is
1453 * locate/locate.c: #include <grp.h> for the benefit of the
1454 setgroups() call in drop_privs.
1455 (slocate_db_pathname): Commented out unused variable.
1456 (set_max_db_age): error command has no format directive, so
1457 remove the unused extra argument.
1458 (looking_at_slocate_db): Removed unused variables magic and
1459 lenwanted. Fix bug where result is indeterminate (due to falling
1460 off the end of the function) if the first character is a nondigit.
1461 (search_one_database): Eliminate (spurious) compiler warning
1462 rlating to possible use before initialisation of slocate_seclevel.
1464 * xargs/xargs.c (get_char_oct_or_hex_escape): Eliminate spurious
1465 compiler warning on variable p.
1466 (main): Removed unused varible env_too_big
1469 2007-02-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1471 * find/parser.c (pred_sanity_check): define this function even for
1472 _NDEBUG, but do nothing in that case.
1473 (estimate_timestamp_success_rate): correct (invert) the sense of
1474 the subtraction used to find the file's age.
1476 * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_modules): Import Gnulib modules
1477 xstrtod and timespec.
1479 * find/parser.c (get_comp_type): Refactored out of get_num.
1480 (get_num): call get_comp_type to find the comparison type.
1481 (get_relative_timestamp): new function replacing get_num_days.
1482 (get_num_days): Remove.
1483 (do_parse_xmin): Support fractional arguments and
1484 nanosecond timestamps.
1488 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Give a warning message if a NUL is
1489 found in the input (this function is called only when -0 is not in
1492 * xargs/xargs.c (nullwarning_given): New variable indicating if
1493 the NULL character warning had already been issued.
1495 * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): Describe how trailing blanks are
1496 handled when -L is in effect.
1498 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Use an enum rather than
1499 preprocessor macro values for the lexer state.
1501 * lib/savedirinfo.c (free_dirinfo): Fixed memory leak (trivial
1502 patch from Supriya Kannery)
1504 2007-01-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1506 * .cvsignore (install-sh): Ignore, since the install-sh file is no
1507 longer held in the findutils CVS repository.
1509 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp (find_start): allow a test to be
1510 skipped for either the old or the new find executable.
1511 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-pwd.exp,
1512 find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
1513 New test, covering Savannah bug #18466. This test currently fails
1514 for the ftsfind binary and passes for the oldfind binary. Due to
1515 a limitation in the way that we perform the test, we can't tell
1516 the test suite to expect a failure in the new binary but not the
1517 old. Therefore we skip the test for the old binary.
1519 * lib/regeprops.c (describe_regex_syntax): fixed a typo in the text
1520 * doc/find.texi (Multiple Files): fixed a typo
1522 2007-01-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1524 (ctime_format): format the time manually (rather than using ctime)
1525 in order to include the sub-second part of the time.
1526 (weekdays, months): new static variables used by ctime_format.
1527 (format_date): append a the sub-second part of the timestamp to
1528 the seconds part of date/time output.
1530 2007-01-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1532 * find/defs.h (time_val): define struct; use timespec to hold time
1533 in the 'reftime' member.
1534 (args): use struct timespec instead of time_t for predicates
1535 -newer, -anewer, -cnewer. * find/parser.c (includes): include
1537 (parse_anewer, parse_cnewer, parse_newer): use struct timespec to
1538 hold timestamps. * find/pred.c (compare_ts): new function for
1539 comparing timestamps in struct timespec.
1540 (pred_anewer, pred_cnewer, pred_newer): use compare_ts() to
1541 compare timestamps (hence takinng acoung of sub-second
1543 * find/ftsfind.c: Various improvements to comments.
1544 (is_fts_enabled): Newline before function name to comply with GNU
1547 2007-01-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1549 * lib/regexprops.c (describe_regex_syntax): fixed typo
1551 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Fixed Savannah bug# 18714; VT and FF
1552 are not separators, according to POSIX (in the POSIX locale).
1554 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am,
1555 xargs/testsuite/input/formfeeds.xi,
1556 xargs/testsuite/input/verticaltabs.xi,
1557 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714.exp,
1558 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714.xo,
1559 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714b.exp,
1560 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/sv-bug-18714b.xo: Tests for Savannah
1563 * xargs/xargs.c (usage): Removed suprious "[" in --help output
1564 (fixes Savannah bug #18384).
1566 * locate/locate.c: Implement the option --max-database-age.
1567 (main) Accept the option.
1568 (set_max_db_age): Parse the argument.
1570 * locate/locate.c (dolocate): If the database is more than N days
1571 old, indicate its actual age in the warning message we produce.

1586 2007-01-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1588 * find/parser.c (parse_perm), find/testsuite/find.gnu/perm000.exp,
1589 find/testsuite/find.gnu/perm000.xo: -perm /000 is now quivalent
1590 to -perm -000, as dscussed in Savannah bug #14748. The warning
1591 message we issue when the user does this now explains that the
1592 defintion changed as we promised it would in 2005.
1594 * xargs/xargs.c (read_line): Correctly handle quoted empty
1595 arguments occurring first or last on a line (by adding an empty
1596 argument to the output). Fixes Savannah bug #18713.
1598 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/sv-bug-18713.exp,
1599 xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/sv-bug-18713.xo,
1600 xargs/testsuite/input/empty.xi: Test case for Savannah bug #18713.
1603 2006-12-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1605 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
1606 Verify that find_start is invoked with wither a p (pass) or an f

1610 define find_blocksize() and provide a declaration for get_link_name()
1612 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Updated copyright years.
1614 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-one.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/execdir-root-only.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-12230.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-17782.exp, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
1615 Avoid tests using -execdir if $PATH contains a relative directory
1618 Also flag $PATH values containing relative directories as being dangerous.
1620 * find/parser.c, find/defs.h, find/util.c:
1621 Instead of selecting the old or new exec handling code with the NEW_EXEC macro, just use the new code all the time
1623 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
1624 Fixed Savannah bug #13252, test suite failure caused by the fact that 'file normalize' is not available in Tcl 8.3
1626 * NEWS, find/pred.c:
1627 Fixed Savannah bug #18433, compilation failure with configure --enable-debug

1651 * doc/textinfo.tex: Removed; we now use the version supplied
1654 * m4/mkinstalldirs.m4: Added this file. It's an excerpt from an
1655 old version of gnulib's m4/nls.po file. The current version of
1656 gnulib does not expand MKINSTALLDIRS, but gettext-0.14.6's version
1657 of po/Makefile.in.in expects it to be expanded. This m4 file
1660 2006-11-20 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1662 * po/et.po, po/bg.po, po/pl.po, po/nl.po, po/tr.po: Updated
1663 translations for Bulgarian, Estonian, Dutch, Polish and Turkish.
1665 2006-11-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1667 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
1668 Oops, indicate the right directory for the new test files
1670 * ChangeLog, depcomp, doc/texinfo.tex, find/ftsfind.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-18222.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-18222.xo, install-sh:
1671 Savannah bug#18222 - test case
1673 * ChangeLog, lib/buildcmd.c:
1674 Fixed Svannah bug #17782 ('./' prefix added at start of arg while it should be added at the start of the expansion of {})
1676 * find/ftsfind.c (process_all_startpoints): Set
1677 state.starting_path_length for every pathname argument.
1678 This fixes Savannah bug #18222.
1680 * find/pred.c (pred_prune): -prune should have an effect only if we are
1681 currently considering a directory (Savannah bug #15531).
1683 2006-10-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1685 * lib/buildcmd.c: Fixed Savannah bug #17782, in which "find
1686 -execdir echo "foo {}" runs 'echo ./foo filename' instead of the
1687 correct command 'echo foo ./filename'.
1689 * po/hu.po, po/sl.po: Updated Hungarian and Slovenian po files
1691 2006-08-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1693 * find/parser.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/find.gnu/sv-bug-17490.exp:

1696 2006-08-20 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1698 * find/parser.c: Merged the fix for the trailing % in "find -printf".
1700 2006-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1702 Port recent fixes for symbolic modes involving X from gnulib,
1703 and clarify the documentation in this area.
1704 * doc/find.texi: Use "file mode bits" when talking about
1705 all the file mode bits (including setuid, setgid, and sticky),
1706 and "permissions" when talking only about permissions bits
1707 (read, write, execute/search). Use "execute/search" to
1708 talk about the x bit, since it means both. You do not need
1709 permission to the linked-to file to follow a symlink for
1710 syscalls like "stat", but you do need search permission for
1711 the directories you traverse. Clarify the explanation of
1712 -perm. Use "that" instead of "which" when "which" isn't
1713 quite correct English.
1714 (Mode Bits): Renamed from Permissions. All uses changed.
1715 * doc/perm.texi: Sync from coreutils 6.0.
1716 * find/defs.h (struct perm_val.val): Now an array of two items,
1717 one for non-directories, and one for directories. This is
1718 to handle symbolic modes like +X correctly.
1719 * find/parser.c (parse_perm): Likewise. Also, adjust to
1720 latest gnulib interface for mode_adjust.
1721 * find/pred.c (pred_perm): Likewise.
1722 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST_XO): Add find.posix/perm-X.xo.
1723 (EXTRA_DIST_EXP): Add find.posix/perm-X.exp.
1724 * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-X.exp: New file.
1725 * find/testsuite/find.posix/perm-X.so: New file.
1727 12006-08-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1729 Port to latest gnulib, and simplify the bootstrapping procedure.
1730 * intl: Remove this directory and everything in it.
1731 * depcomp, install-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs, doc/texinfo.tex:
1732 Remove these files from CVS, as they are now gotten from gnulib.
1733 * README-CVS: Don't recommend "autoreconf -i", as it doesn't work
1735 * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_files): New var. Grab this stuff
1737 (findutils_modules): Add fopen-safer; remove stdio-safer. This
1738 adjusts to latest gnulib.
1739 (modules): Remove obsolete reference to intl_modules.
1740 * .cvsignore: Remove stamp-h; add stamp-h1.
1741 * doc/.cvsignore: Add regexprops.texi.
1742 * find/.cvsignore: Add oldfind.
1743 * lib/.cvsignore: Add .deps, regexprops.
1744 * m4/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.
1745 * po/.cvsignore: Add stamp-po.
1747 2006-08-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1749 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigprefix1.exp:
1750 Explicit checks for parefixes which are within range of a short, but outside the one-byte range
1752 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/bigprefix1.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/exceedshort.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/space1st.exp:
1755 * locate/testsuite/Makefile.am, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/exceedshort.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/space1st.exp:
1756 Patch from Tavis Ormandy; check frcode handles initial space end encodes paths with more than 2^16 characters in the common prefix (trivial change)
1758 * locate/frcode.c: Changes to avoid overflows
1760 2006-08-11 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1763 Avoid producing an invalid database if the first item begins with a space
1765 2006-08-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1767 * find/pred.c, import-gnulib.sh, lib/listfile.c:

1781 * find/ftsfind.c: display fts_level for find -D search
1783 * find/util.c: Support find -D search
1786 If the user specified -E but the database is an slocate database, do
1787 not produce a list of files they cannot stat. Issue an error message
1788 explaining the problem.
1791 Issue states messages in a way which indicates more clearly what's
1792 happening when the numbers are reduced because not every filename
1793 matched the pattern.
1795 * locate/locate.c: Better error checking in drop_privs().
1797 2006-08-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
1799 * NEWS, locate/locate.c, locate/locatedb.h:
1800 Added support for slocate database format

2024 2005-12-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2028 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/access.exp:

2045 Fixed spelling errors in Bob Proulx's name. Sorry, Bob.
2047 2005-12-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2050 Aaron Hawley: Updated perm.texi from the coreutils distribution
2053 Avoid using entries which have the same name as POSIX library
2054 functions (fprintf, printf, exec) as the implementation is allowed to
2055 #define these. That generates hard-to-grok compilation errors.
2057 2005-12-10 Andreas Metzler <gnu@downhill.at.eu.org>
2059 * ChangeLog, NEWS, configure.in, find/defs.h, find/parser.c:

2074 Savannah patch #3775 from Aaron Hawley: reconciling man pages
2075 differences; did not apply the patch, but resolved all the
2076 remaining issues manually by updating the documentation (mostly
2077 the Texinfo documentation, which was missing a number of specific
2078 technical statements about the behaviour of various options)
2080 2005-12-04 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2082 * doc/find.texi: Document --show-limits

2101 Bug report by Primoz Peterlin.
2103 * lib/regexprops.c, xargs/xargs.c:

2119 2005-11-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2121 * NEWS: Bug #14921 has been fixed.
2124 Savannah bug #14921: when a Linux bind filesystem is in use, find
2125 would expand '-printf %F' to 'none' if a bind mount targetted the same
2126 filesystem as the one containing the file to be described.
2128 * NEWS: Updated to describe recent changes
2130 * doc/find.texi, find/find.1: Documented find -printf %M

2151 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
2152 Even if we expect locate to return a nonzero status, the test should
2153 still fail if updatedb fails!
2155 * locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case2.exp:
2156 Set the current directory for updatedb. This test case is supposed to
2157 fail because the filename is not matched, not because updatedb fails!
2159 * locate/updatedb.sh:
2160 Check the binaries actually exist in the place we expect.
2162 2005-11-20 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

2194 bugfix from Jim Meyering (tiny change), where many short arguments
2195 would cause xargs (and probably find -exec .. {} +) to fail
2196 because execve() returns E2BIG, which we should avoid

2210 2005-11-11 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2212 * NEWS, find/find.c, find/fstype.c: Savannah bug #14922: if we need the
2213 list of mounted filesystems but it is not available, exit fatally
2214 with a message. If it is not available but we don't need it,
2215 there is no need for an error.

2244 Fixed Savannah bug #14550 - if environment is too large to allow
2245 exec() to work, we cannot even use "xargs --help".
2248 Avoid the use of -perm +mode, using -perm /mode instead. From comment
2249 by Andreas Metzler (though I didn't read the patch).

2252 Typo fix from A Costa (tiny change)
2254 * NEWS: Corrections for find manual page - symbolic permissions.

2510 of the actions and tests of find
2512 * find/find.c (default_prints):
2513 not a static function, so do not declare it as one.
2515 * m4/withfts.m4: Fixed underquoted definition of FIND_WITH_FTS.
2516 [this change is currently on a branch only]
2518 2005-07-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2520 * find/finddata.c, find/ftsfind.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c,
2521 find/util.c, m4/Makefile.am, m4/withfts.m4: Initial attempt to
2522 convert find to use gnulib's fts()
2523 [this change is currently on a branch only]
2525 * find/finddata.c, find/ftsfind.c, m4/withfts.m4: New file.

2532 2005-07-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2534 * NEWS, configure.in
2535 Prepared for the release of findutils-4.2.24
2537 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.
2539 * NEWS, find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
2540 Indicate that -ok and -okdir redirect stdin from /dev/null.
2542 * NEWS: Explain the directory link count change more throroughly.
2544 * NEWS: Fixed bug #13973.
2546 * find/pred.c (pred_fprintf): Fix Savannah bug #13973: Modify the
2547 handling of -printf %Y so that it no longer modifies stat_buf
2549 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-symlink.exp,
2550 find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf-symlink.xo: Detect Savannah bug
2551 #13973: pollution of stat_buf by the %Y directive (trivial change
2552 from Andreas Metzler)
2554 * INSTALL, depcomp, doc/texinfo.tex, install-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs:
2555 Updated auxilliary files from the automake-1.9 distribution
2558 Introduce new Automake conditional, CROSS_COMPILING, true when we are corss compiling
2561 If we decline to follow a symbolic link due to the safety check, issue a more self-explanatory warning message
2563 * lib/Makefile.am: Don't build regexprops if we are cross compiling
2566 Depend on the regex.h file rather than the 'regexprops' binary,
2567 because the header file will always exist even if we are doing "make
2568 dist". Otherwise "make distcheck" fails because it tries to rebuild
2569 find.info while the source-directory is read-only.
2571 2005-07-28 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2574 Say "other users" rather than "rest of the world" when talking about
2575 Unix permissions. Fixes Savannah bug #4246.
2577 2005-07-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2579 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added new test case 'childfail.exp'.
2582 Updated the description of the safe-dir-change operation to reflect
2583 what find now does on systems that lack O_NOFOLLOW.
2585 * NEWS, find/parser.c: Indicate in the output of find --version if
2586 the leaf optimisation is enabled or not
2588 * find/find.c: Fixed typo.
2590 * find/find.c: If the link count of a directory starts off less
2591 than two, disable the leaf optimisation for this directory.
2593 2005-07-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2595 * lib/regexprops.c: Further small corrections from Karl.
2598 Reordered the sections in the manual to put the "Common Tasks" and
2599 "Worked Examples" chapters together.
2601 * configure.in, find/find.c: Allow the leaf optimisation to be
2602 disabled by default with the configure option
2603 --disable-leaf-optimisation
2605 * find/find.c: Removed old code for antuqie version of savedir().
2607 * lib/regextype.c: Put the syntaxes in alphabetical order.
2609 * lib/regexprops.c: Karl made some more readability suggestions.
2611 2005-07-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2613 * doc/Makefile.am: If the regexprops program has changed we should
2614 re-run it, since it will probably now produce different output
2617 Allow the caller to detect if one regex type is identical to another.
2620 Define the preprocessor macro FINDUTILS for that code int he lib/
2621 directory can be slightly more reusable.
2624 Allow the caller to detect if one regex type is identical to another.
2627 Made Texinfo style corrections suggested by Karl Berry.
2629 2005-07-22 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2631 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/childfail.exp, xargs/xargs.c: Fix
2632 Savannah bug #13878, in which xargs deals incorrectly with child
2633 failure, returning 0 when it should return 123
2635 2005-07-17 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2637 * find/find.1: (tiny change) Corrections by Greg Wooledge
2639 2005-07-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

2646 Added in the example about updating an aggregate timestamp file.
2648 2005-07-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2650 * po/da.po: Updated Danish translation from translation project
2652 2005-07-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

2662 We require GNU sort in order for locate to handle newlines correctly,
2665 2005-07-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2668 Applied several documentation improvement patches from Aaron Hawley
2670 * ChangeLog, NEWS: Updated with recent changes.
2672 * NEWS: Recent gnulib changed have fixed -iregex
2674 * doc/find.texi, xargs/xargs.1:
2675 Tiny patch from Andreas Metzler: xargs -I is like xargs -i, but the latter is deprecated
2677 2005-07-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2679 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
2680 Fixed Savannah bug #13650; programs run by -exec cannot read stdin
2682 2005-07-04 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

2712 is present - avoid using HAVE_UNISTD_H
2714 2005-07-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2716 With `-fprint F' or `-fprintf F', don't write diagnostics
2717 to F when stderr is closed.
2719 * find/parser.c: Include "stdio-safer.h".
2720 (open_output_file): Use fopen_safer, not fopen.
2721 * import-gnulib.sh (findutils_modules): Add stdio-safer.
2723 2005-07-01 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2726 Aaron pointed out a potentially-confusing sentence. I fixed it.
2728 * find/defs.h, find/find.1, find/find.c, find/parser.c,
2729 find/pred.c, find/util.c: Allow consistency-checking of the

2785 will never be matched.
2787 2005-06-18 Martin Buchholz (trivial patch applied by James Youngman)
2789 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, doc/find.texi: Fix

2804 2005-06-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2806 * find/find.c, NEWS:
2807 Savannah bug #13381 (Debian bug 313081): if we have O_NOFOLLOW,
2808 safely_chdir() does not need to call stat(). However, process_dir()
2809 used to rely on using that stat information. To work around this
2810 problem, there is now an output parameter in safely_chdir() which
2811 indicates if the stat buffer is valid.
2812 This bug has possible security implications.
2814 * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
2815 Applied patch from Andreas Metzler, improving the wording for the
2816 documentation of the %k and %b format directives. This patch does
2817 not require a copyright assignment as it consists of several
2818 copies of the same small wording change.
2820 2005-06-11 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2822 * find/find.1: Corrected spelling error 'writeable' to 'writable'.

2830 new scheme for saving directory entry data which is extensible to
2831 allow additional data to be saved.
2833 2005-06-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2835 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
2836 Use the new normalize_dir procedure throughout.
2838 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Move the normalisation into a
2839 procedure. Don't rely on the "file normalize" command being
2840 available (it's new in Tcl 8.4).
2842 2005-06-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2844 * ChangeLog, NEWS, configure.in: Updated for recent changes
2847 Explain that you should put the argument of -name in quotes.
2850 Added a new "NON-BUGS" section pointing out things that look like bugs
2851 but are caused by mistakes or misunderstandings.
2853 * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: Applied Bas van Gompel's patch
2854 which allows the database to be read from stdin.
2857 Read the database in by using the "visitor" pattern. Modified file
2858 header comment to indicate that we no longer use the efficient
2859 algorith described in ;login:. Emit an error message if the
2860 LOCATE_PATH variable implies that we should read stdin twice.
2861 Most of this code is from Bas van Gompel.
2863 * AUTHORS: Credit Bas van Gompel for his work on locate.
2865 * lib/printquoted.h: Appled patch from Bas - fixing compiler warning.

2983 2005-05-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
2986 The previous change fixed Savannah bug #12999. This change doesn't do
2987 anything, it's only intended to be a place to record the Savannah bug
2988 ID we've just fixed.
2991 Oops. Initialise the variable which indicates which regex syntax to
2992 use. We use POSIX basic regular expressions.
2995 Suggestion by Ed Avis: point out that "-name foo/bar" will almost
2996 always evaluate to false. Suggest to the user what alternatives they

3071 * find/testsuite/find.posix/sizes.exp:

3205 * NEWS, configure.in: Prepared for release of 4.2.18.
3207 * ChangeLog: Updated prior to release of 4.2.18.
3209 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:
3210 Distribute the test cases for the recent "find -depth" bug.
3212 * find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.exp, find/testsuite/find.posix/depth1.xo:
3213 Added test case for find -depth bug reported by Joseph S. Myers
3216 If -depth is in effect, processing of the subdirectories invalidates
3217 the information in 'state'. Therefore once we get around to
3218 processing the predicates, restore the information that we keep in
3219 'state' and in 'stat_buf'.
3221 2005-02-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3223 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes
3226 Emphasise that -L causes find to recurse into subdirectories pointed
3227 to by symbolic links.
3230 Patch to find.1 from Aaron Hawley <Aaron.Hawley@uvm.edu>:
3232 * Notes about -H actually apply to -L.
3233 * Said paragraph is duplicated two paragraphs later.
3234 * Typos: nno, ibmue, surrpounding
3236 2005-02-15 Aaron Hawley <Aaron.Hawley@uvm.edu>

3242 2005-02-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3244 * find/find.1: Miscellaneous small clarifications and improvements.
3246 * doc/find.texi: Added Info nodes and menus under "Changing the
3247 Current Working Directory" so that it doesn't generate such a huge
3250 * find/find.c: Parenthesise #if defined(...).
3252 2005-02-13 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
3254 * find/find.c: remove test code snippet (time(NULL) was used to
3255 place a marker for spotting with strace(), but was not actually
3258 * find/find.c (safely_chdir_nofollow): must not fall back on
3259 safely_chdir_lstat() because that will expose it to race condition
3260 exploits, making it pointless.
3262 * find/find.c (safely_chdir_lstat): Move
3263 complete_pending_execdirs() up into safely_chdir(), because we
3264 need to do that in either case.
3266 2005-02-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3268 * configure.in, doc/find.texi, find/defs.h, find/find.c,
3269 find/parser.c: Fix for Savannah bug #11879, that
3270 init_mounted_dev_list() causes find to hang on systems which are
3271 clients to dead NFS servers
3273 2005-02-10 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3275 * doc/find.texi: Talk about the problem where find will not work
3276 if you have a filesystem mounted from an unresponsive NFS server.
3278 2005-02-09 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3280 * find/find.1: Indicate that $TZ affects from printf-format
3281 results, and add extra cross-references in the SEE ALSO section.
3283 2005-02-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3285 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Distribute the .xe files also.
3287 * Makefile.am: Check that we have the right number of .xe files in
3288 the distribution also.

3293 2005-02-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3295 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp: Re-sort the .xo file using the
3296 calling user's locale, because our 'pre-sorted' .so output file
3297 may not be sorted with the same collating order as 'sort' used to
3298 order the output of "find. Bug spotted by Vin Shelton and Dimitry
3301 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am:

3321 2005-02-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

3342 for -execdir/-okdir.
3344 * find/pred.c (pred_execdir, pred_okdir): Use state.rel_pathname
3345 instead of basename(pathname). Do not add "./" prefix for
3348 * find/find.c (process_top_path): Treat "/" similarly to ".".
3350 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/savannah-11865.exp,
3351 xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/savannah-11865.xo, xargs/xargs.c:
3352 Fixed Savannah bug #11866 (not resetting number of used chars in
3353 the command buffer) - reported by Dimitry V. Levin
3355 2005-02-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3358 Added thanks for Dimitry - has produced many patches, bugfixes and
3362 Fixed Savannah bug #11866: typo in pred_okdir() renders it useless
3365 Savannah bug #11861: undefined symbol 'basename' on IRIX 5.3

3381 po/tr.po: make update-po prior to 'make distcheck'
3383 * po/fetch-po-files: This is the first version we actually used.
3385 * find/find.c: process_top_path() fixed compilation warning.
3387 * find/find.c: process_top_path(): avoid processing this item if
3388 we can't chdir to the basename of the named file.
3390 * lib/Makefile.am: Always build forcefindlib.c
3392 * locate/locate.c: Say 'base name' rather than 'basename' in comments
3394 * find/pred.c, find/find.c: process_top_path(): Proper bugfix for
3395 correct handling of items at depth 0 (i.e. specified on the
3396 command line) - do an extra chdir to ensure that we're in the
3397 directory containing the item before calling process_path().
3398 Hnece also undo the previous 'quick fix' for the same problem
3401 -execdir no longer has to treat anything as special, even at depth 0.
3403 2005-02-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3405 * doc/find.texi, find/pred.c: When state.curdepth is 0, our
3406 working directory is not the directory containing the file we are

3423 xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp, xargs/xargs.c: Updated/corrected
3424 the email address for David MacKenzie, one of the original authors
3427 * doc/Makefile.am: The HTML version of the manual generated for
3428 the GNU project website has each node in a separate file, not each
3429 chapter in a separate file; adjust filenames accordingly
3431 * find/parser.c, find/pred.c, lib/savedirinfo.c:
3432 Removed some unused variables (patch from Dmitry V. Levin)
3435 Patch from Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>: Add subfs to the list
3436 of filesystems which are likely to be automounted.

3445 find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.exp,
3446 find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.xo: Systems differ in the order in
3447 which filenames are returned by readdir. Hence sort the output of
3448 'find' before comparing against the expected-output file. We
3449 therefore also have the lines in the .xo files ready-sorted.
3451 2005-01-30 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3454 Added rules for extra targets that we buld to update the web site.
3456 2005-01-29 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3458 * configure.in: No longer version 4.2.15 - we've changed the manual.
3461 Clarified the txt about adding extra tests with post-processing via
3462 xargs, and recommend -execdir instead for security reasons.
3464 * doc/find.texi: Patch from Karl Berry:
3465 - more entries for the dir file
3466 - use @copying so the copyright ends up in the HTML etc. output.
3467 (This is the only really important change.)
3468 - put @contents after the title page, for conventional toc location.
3469 - use @ifnottex to wrap the Top node instead of @ifinfo, for the sake of

3528 * Makefile.am: Work around the fact that automake-1.7 actually
3529 works, and correctly distributes regex.c; hence dist-hook should
3530 only copy gnulib/lib/regex.c if this has not already been done.

3555 Invoke gl_INCLUDED_REGEX directly to ensure successful compilation on

3619 * NEWS: Indicate the d_type performance improvement
3621 2005-01-18 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

3625 * lib/savedirinfo.c: Added on branch d_type_optimisation also.
3627 * find/pred.c: Added assert that we actually know the file type by
3628 the time pred_type() is called
3630 * find/find.c: Always initialise state.have_stat = false when
3631 starting to work with a new file
3633 2005-01-17 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3635 * ChangeLog: Brought up to date with recent changes.
3637 * NEWS: Documented the changes so far.
3639 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-success.xo:
3640 Expected output for exec-many-rtn-success.exp
3643 Indicate that -quit still ensures that pending commands are invoked
3646 Indicate that -quit still causes partial command lines to be invoked,
3647 but there are some types of fatal error which leave such commands
3650 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/pred.c, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
3651 Fixed savannah bug #11625 Wrong return status for -exec ... \; when command fails; also execute any pending commands when doing -quit
3653 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-failure.xo, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-many-rtn-success.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-fail.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-fail.xo, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-success.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/exec-one-rtn-success.xo:
3654 Various test cases for succeeding and failing forms of -exec \; and -exec {} +
3656 * find/pred.c: "-exec ... {} +" always returns "true".
3658 * configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c, find/util.c:
3659 Implemented d_type optimisation but not working correctly, so currently disabled
3661 * lib/savedirinfo.h, lib/savedirinfo.c:
3662 Initial implementation (temporarily disabled).
3664 * lib/Makefile.am: Resolved merge conflict.
3667 Make sure nextelem.h is included in the list of sources.
3669 * find/parser.c, lib/nextelem.c, lib/nextelem.h, locate/locate.c:

3672 2005-01-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3674 * find/find.c, find/pred.c:
3675 When completing incomplete multiple execs, use 'eval_tree' not 'predicates'
3678 Oops, initialise state->cmd_initial_argv_chars to zero.
3681 Document the way that -execdir and -okdir will refuse to wqork if ">"
3682 is on $PATH. Also document -okdir in the manpage.
3685 -execdir and -okdir are insecure if $PATH includes the current
3686 directory, and so they refuse to work if the user has done that.
3689 Oops; for -exec ... {} +, pass arguments to bc_push_arg() in the right
3690 order. Problem spotted by Geoff Clare.
3692 * TODO: Removed items which have now been done.
3694 * lib/buildcmd.c: Tidied up formatting of arg list for bc_do_insert
3696 2005-01-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

3735 * find/find.c: Fixed typo in comment.
3737 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
3738 We now understand but do not implement -execdir (a *BSD invention, and a very useful security enhancement) and -okdir (the obvious companion to it)
3740 * locate/bigram.c, locate/code.c, locate/frcode.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:
3741 The GNU coding standard requires a space between the function name and
3742 its parenthesised argument list.
3745 Understand the -exec ... {} \+ construction (for multiple
3746 replacement). No support yet.
3749 Indicate that empty elements in the dbpath are treated as synonyms for
3750 the default database.
3753 Support empty elements in the dbpath as synonyms for the default
3754 database. These colons can be leading, trailing or in the middle of
3755 the string. We no longer com,plain if the user does this.
3758 If curdir_ok is 0 and an element is empty, return "" instead of NULL
3759 so that the caller knows to keep calling us.
3761 * find/find.c, find/pred.c, import-gnulib.sh, locate/bigram.c, locate/code.c, locate/frcode.c, locate/locate.c, xargs/xargs.c:

3765 changed .pot creation date
3767 * THANKS, AUTHORS: Take into account the FSF copyright-assignments list
3770 If -quit is used, the exit value can be nonzero if errors have occurred.
3773 Removed incorrect comment about -H, -P and -follow in HISTORY.
3775 2005-01-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3777 * lib/Makefile.am, lib/buildcmd.c, lib/buildcmd.h, xargs/xargs.c:
3778 Refactored xargs to use an external library function from the new file buildcmd.c
3780 * configure.in: no longer the same as the released 4.2.11 version
3782 2005-01-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3784 * xargs/testsuite/inputs/lines.xi, xargs/testsuite/xargs.posix/l2.exp, xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am:
3785 Tests for the -L option
3787 * xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp: When a test fails, show the diffs

3790 tests for the -l option
3792 * xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am: Added extra test files
3794 * xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.exp, xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.xe, xargs/testsuite/xargs.sysv/trace.xo:
3795 Added tests for the -t option
3797 * xargs/testsuite/config/unix.exp, xargs/testsuite/inputs/foobar.xi, xargs/testsuite/xargs.gnu/r.exp, xargs/testsuite/xargs.gnu/r.xo, xargs/xargs.1:
3798 Use a blanks-only input file for cases where there is supposed to be no output
3800 * xargs/testsuite/inputs/blank.xi: Initial version.
3803 Corrected a typo; also indicate that it's impossible to use xargs
3804 securely due to the race condition.
3806 2005-01-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3809 Fixed Savannah bug 11495: fallthrough from -printf format processing
3810 from 'n' case to 'd' case.
3812 2005-01-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3815 Oops. Had duplicated an entire section. Fortunately this was after
3816 @bye, so there was no adverse effect.
3820 * doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1: document locate -S
3822 * configure.in, doc/find.texi, locate/locate.1, locate/locate.c:
3823 Support locate -b as a synonym for locate --basename
3825 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
3828 * find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
3829 Clean up (delete) find.out at at the end of the test.
3831 * NEWS, doc/find.texi, find/defs.h, find/find.1, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
3832 Implemented the -samefile test for find
3834 2005-01-02 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3836 * ChangeLog: Updated with recent changes.
3839 Bas van Gompel: two-line patch to locate.c to make locate's -i and -w
3840 options work if -e is in use.
3842 * THANKS: Added Bas van Gompel.
3845 Bas van Gompel: (visit_exists) when testing for the existence of the
3846 file, check the real filename [printname], not the case-converted
3847 filename [testname]. Really these argument names are badly chosen.
3849 * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
3850 Improved the documentation for -perm, with plenty of examples,
3851 following a comment by Dan Jacobson that the comment "Symbolic modes
3852 use mode 0 as a point of departure" is baffling and unhelpful.
3855 Suggestion and patch from Bas van Gompel: (new_locate): Fix display of
3856 negative compression ratios.
3858 2004-12-31 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3860 * NEWS: Brought up to date with recent changes
3863 Don't need to nest the "race conditions with..." sections so deeply.
3865 * doc/find.texi: Corrected some spelling errors.
3867 * doc/find.texi: Added new "Security Considerations" chapter.
3869 2004-12-23 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3872 Applied bugfixes from Bas van Gompel <patch-findutils.buzz@bavag.tmfweb.nl>.
3873 (lc_strcpy): Zero-terminate result.
3874 (add_visitor): Update lastinspector.
3875 (visit_substring_match_casefold): fix off-by-one error.
3876 (new_locate): Move visit_exists down to improve performance.
3877 (new_locate): Don't fold case when getting stats.
3879 2004-12-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3882 Indicate that "cd /; find tmp -wholename /tmp" will never match anything.
3884 * doc/find.texi: Documented locate --statistics.
3886 * locate/locate.1: Documented the --statistics option.
3888 * locate/locate.c: Added support for the -S option.
3890 2004-12-12 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3892 * NEWS: Added a summary of the changes so far.
3894 * find/tree.c: Made some of the error messages more self-explanatory
3896 * find/pred.c: Print pointers with %p, not %x.
3898 * find/find.c: Moved option data into struct options.
3900 * find/find.1: clarifications
3902 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/comma.exp:
3903 Limit the amount of searching with maxdepth.
3905 * doc/find.texi: clearer description of how -prune works
3907 * ChangeLog: Removed duplicate entry.
3909 * configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c, find/util.c:
3910 Separated ariables representing current state from variable representing option information
3912 2004-12-11 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3914 * find/parser.c: Readability improvement to the usage message.
3916 * find/find.c: Oops. Fixed unmatched #endif.
3918 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.exp, find/testsuite/find.gnu/printf.xo, THANKS, configure.in, find/testsuite/Makefile.am, find/testsuite/config/unix.exp:
3919 Fixed Savannah bug #11280
3922 Remember to set path_length and curdepth in process_top_path().
3924 2004-12-07 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3926 * find/fstype.c: Use xstat() not stat() to examine things.
3928 * find/find.c: Explain why #ifdef EOVERFLOW.
3930 * find/find.c: EOVERFLOW is not defined on UNICOS.
3932 * NEWS: Corrected typo.
3934 2004-12-06 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3936 * ChangeLog: Brought up to date.
3938 * NEWS, configure.in: releasing 4.2.10
3940 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
3943 * ChangeLog: Updated prior to release of finsutils-4.2.10.
3945 * import-gnulib.sh, find/fstype.c:
3946 Use gnulib's mountlist module instead of grokking it ourselves.
3949 Removed all the out-of-date cruft for grokking getmntent().
3952 Added the -I and -L options; also -E takes an argument which is not optional.
3954 2004-12-05 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3956 * README, configure.in, find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, find/tree.c:
3957 Allow debug output to be turned on or off by saying --enable-debug on the configure command line
3960 Removed disparaging (it is now, it probably wasn't then) comment about
3961 the production-readiness of Automake.
3963 * README: Qualify remarks about POSIX compliance.
3965 * NEWS, configure.in: Preparation for release 4.2.9
3967 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
3970 * ChangeLog: Brought up to date.
3973 Avoid duplicate error message when we cannot chdir() into a subdirectory.
3975 * THANKS: Added recent thankees.
3978 Brought up to date with respect to the current set of fixed bugs.
3980 * NEWS, xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c:
3981 Implemented POSIX options -L, -I and -E
3983 2004-12-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3986 -xdev is an option, not a test. Fixes Savannah bug 11192.
3988 * find/find.1, xargs/xargs.1:
3989 Escape dashes with a backslash (for fix Savannah bug 11189).
3991 2004-11-27 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
3994 More use of safely_chdir(). Also bugfix: -L should imply -noleaf. Be more careful about when xstat should fall back on lstat() when stat() fails.
3996 * find/find.1: "necessary" only has one "C".
3999 If stat() fails with ELOOP, we issue a diagnostic message.
4001 2004-11-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4003 * find/find.c: Removed some unused code.
4005 * Makefile.am: Don't do anything in the 'intl' subdirectory
4008 Enhanced safely_chdir() to the point where the test suite passes, and report infinite loops in the directory hierarchy
4011 belt and braces; ensure that SYMLINK_NEVER_DEREF has value zero
4014 Describe our strategy for detecting and reporting infinite loops
4016 2004-11-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4019 Updated the discussion of th error messages for findutils-4.2.8.
4021 * configure.in: Next version will be 4.2.9...
4024 Don't issue a warning if we notice the mounting of a filesystem that's
4025 likely just to be an automounter.
4027 * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
4028 Explain how rounding is performed for -atime and friends.
4031 Once we collect enough arguments (for the value specified by the -n
4032 option) to do an exec(), do it immediaely instead of waiting for the
4033 next one to arrive. This fixes Savannah bug #7340.
4035 * ChangeLog, configure.in, NEWS: Prepare to release 4.2.8.
4037 * NEWS: Updates for 4.2.8.
4039 * configure.in: check for sys/types.h
4042 If wd_sanity_check() discovers that the mount table has changed, remember the updated device number and inode so that we also consider these to be valid on the way back up.
4045 Declarations of xmalloc() and friends belong in xalloc.h, not in defs.h
4047 * find/parser.c: avoid signed/unsigned warning, and #include xalloc.h
4050 Changed to alloc get_mounted_devices() to compile on Solaris
4053 Automake requires GNU m4, so point out that the reader needs that.
4055 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c:
4056 When wd_sanity_check() fails, enumerate the mounted devices, rather than the mounted filesystem names
4058 * NEWS: prepare for 4.2.8
4061 Look for some Solaris headers which are used by get_mounted_devices()
4063 * lib/Makefile.am: don't build savedirtypes yet
4065 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
4069 Avoid suprious output of the test data when the tests fail.
4071 2004-11-21 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4073 * po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
4074 Messages changed again
4076 * ChangeLog, configure.in: Preparing to release 4.2.7.
4078 * NEWS: Updated for release of 4.2.7.
4080 * import-gnulib.sh: Also need canonicalize module.
4083 When checking to see if a filesystem has changed state, use an
4087 No need to pause to allow James to view his handiwork, it (allegedly)
4091 Oops. Check for setlocale() to re-enable the i18n support which was
4092 accidentally disabled in 4.2.5.
4095 Check to see if the new directory is a transitioned mount point by
4096 using its ABSOLUTE name, if we can figure it out.
4099 Added guidance on some of the error messages. Not the most common
4100 ones, but the ones where the user might most benefit from some handy
4101 hints or an explanation of what is going on.
4104 Actually emit an error message if we fail to stat a symlink (for
4105 reasons other than nonexistence of the link and infinite loop).
4107 * doc/texinfo.tex: Updated texinfo.tex
4109 * NEWS, configure.in, find/find.c, find/fstype.c:
4110 Enable the 'Warning: filesystem XXX has recently been mounted' check on Solaris, which prevents it exiting fatally when traversing an automount mount point

4118 Implemented xargs --arg-file
4121 Where a filesystem was recently (un)mounted, try togive its full name
4124 Try to avoid requesting -lsun if we don't seem to need it (e.g. on
4125 UNICOS where it is not present and trying to link against it produces
4128 * find/defs.h, lib/modetype.h: Guard against multiple inclusion
4131 We now need <mntent.h> even if we are not using getmntent() to figure
4132 out the type of a filesystem, because wd_sanity_check() needs to
4133 enumerate the system mount points.
4135 * configure.in: Next release will be 4.2.7.
4138 get_mounted_filesystems() should use getmntent() if that function is
4139 present, rather than just if configure didn't find anything better for
4140 filesystem_type_uncached() to use than that.
4143 If -delete is the only action on a file, don't assume the default
4146 * ChangeLog, configure.in, po/da.po, po/de.po, po/es.po, po/et.po, po/findutils.pot, po/fr.po, po/gl.po, po/id.po, po/it.po, po/ko.po, po/nl.po, po/pl.po, po/pt_BR.po, po/ru.po, po/sk.po, po/sv.po, po/tr.po:
4147 Preparation to release findutils-4.2.6.
4149 * find/Makefile.am, xargs/Makefile.am:
4150 Enable checking of support for --version and --help
4152 * locate/Makefile.am:
4153 Con't check command-line options for frcode, code or bigram
4155 * locate/code.c: Support --version and --help.
4157 * ChangeLog: *** empty log message ***
4159 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/fstype.c, lib/Makefile.am, lib/extendbuf.c, lib/extendbuf.h, NEWS:
4160 Avoid fatal error if automount mounts a filesystem on a directory because we chdir()ed into it
4162 * configure.in: Next release will be 4.2.6.
4165 Indicate that the '-' flag does work for most fields. Also provide
4166 an example of using the comma operator to traverse the filesystem just
4167 once but search for more than one thing.
4169 * doc/find.texi: Indicate that the '-' flag does work for most fields.
4171 2004-11-19 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4173 * configure.in: releaseing findutils-4.2.5
4175 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am, locate/testsuite/Makefile.am, xargs/testsuite/Makefile.am:
4176 If a directory has no Makefile.am, omit it from the parent's DIST_SUBDIRS - automake-1.9 requires this

4179 updated by make distcheck
4181 * ChangeLog, NEWS: Updated for release 4.2.5.
4183 * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
4184 Tell the reader that format flags may not work as they expect.
4187 Use the correct name for the macro gl_AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG (not
4188 jm_AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG).
4190 2004-11-15 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4193 Avoid test -e because not all systems are POSIX-compliant (bug
4194 #11005). Also don't need regex module any more if we're not building

4204 Make sure gnulib.lib is on the #include path (Savannah bug #11002)
4207 Use base_name instead of basename - fixes Savannah bug 11003.

4348 When deciding whether to issue a warning about options following
4349 non-options, ignore any options whose position affects the tests
4350 (i.e. -daystart and -follow).
4352 * find/parser.c: -daystart is a positional option like -follow.
4355 Issue a warning message if an option is specified after a test or an
4356 action (because the user might have believed that the behaviour of the
4357 option is in some way conditional on the preceding tests).
4359 * locate/updatedb.sh:
4360 Oops; removed some test code that I shouldn't have checked in.
4362 * locate/updatedb.sh:

4414 ignore the setting of errno.
4416 * find/parser.c: More fixes for pedantic compiler warnings
4418 * NEWS, find/parser.c, find/tree.c: Eliminated some compiler warnings
4420 * find/find.c, find/parser.c, find/pred.c:
4421 Various fixes for compiler warninga sbout unreachable code or unused function arguments
4423 * intl/plural.y: Silence compiler warning about unused argument.

4426 Subdirectory "inputs" does not exist, so remove it from DIST_SUBDIRS.
4429 Corrected the explanation of why we have to use no parentheses around
4430 the String argument to the N_ macro in its expansion.
4432 * configure.in: Nextr release is 4.2.3.
4434 * configure.in: IOndicate this is no longer the pristine release.
4437 Oops, comments for release 4.2.0 should have said 20480 bytes, not 2480.
4440 The -ls predicate should not truncate usernames. Fixes Savannah bug #10800.
4442 * find/fstype.c, locate/locate.c:

4454 * find/parser.c: Use RE_ICASE instead of re->translate.
4456 * configure.in, find/parser.c, find/pred.c, xargs/xargs.c:
4457 No need to #define _GNU_SOURCE if we use gl_INIT.

4500 * find/testsuite/find.gnu/name-period.xo, find/testsuite/find.gnu/name-period.exp, find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
4501 The -name predicate must allow '*' to match '.foo' as demanded by IEEE

4505 Remove use of FNM_PERIOD for -name as demanded by IEEE Std 1003.2-1992

4542 * find/parser.c: bug #10701: find needs fnmatch sanitycheck on startup
4544 2004-10-16 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4547 Switch to requirement for GNU fnmatch because it supports FNM_CASEFOLD.
4549 * locate/updatedb.sh:
4550 Bug #9465: use of signal numbers for 'trap' is deprecated. Should use
4552 http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/trap.html,
4553 which indicates that support for signal numbers is optional, while

4572 * locate/testsuite/config/unix.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case1.exp, locate/testsuite/locate.gnu/ignore_case3.exp, locate/updatedb.sh:
4573 Added new option --changecwd to updatedb so that the 'cd /' which it does can be compatible with the requirements of the test suite. Specifically, the test suite relies on being able to use relative pathnames
4576 Fixed usage of human_readable() in '%k' format specifier to fix a bug
4577 reported by Dmitry V. Levin (arguments to human_readable() were
4578 specified in the wrong order, which resulted in a floating-point
4581 2004-08-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4583 * locate/updatedb.sh:
4584 cd to / to avoid inability to examine the current directory if we're
4585 invoked via cron (and hence in root's home directory for example).
4587 * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
4588 Deprecate -path and -ipath in favour of -wholename and -iwholename
4591 As per RMS's suggestion, deprecate -path and -ipath in favour of
4592 -wholename and -iwholename.
4595 Fixed Savannah bug #9923, in which get_short() returns large positive
4596 ints when it should be returning negative shorts.
4599 Applied documentation improvements suggested by Dan Jacobson
4600 <jidanni@jidanni.org>.
4603 Don't check size_of_environment against arg_max since that causes the
4606 * xargs/xargs.1, xargs/xargs.c: Better documentation for the -i option
4608 2004-05-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

4612 option -ignore_readdir_race
4615 Fixes Savannah bug #8623 (failure to check consistency of data
4616 read from locate database)
4618 * locate/updatedb.sh:
4619 Resolves Savannah bug 4380, that updatedb generates an empty
4620 database if one of the commands fails
4622 * NEWS: Talk about -ignore_readdir_race
4625 Documented -ignore_readdir_race and -noignore_readdir_race
4628 -ignore_readdir_race should have no effect if the reason for the
4629 failure of stat(2) was anything other than ENOENT.
4631 * find/defs.h, find/find.c, find/parser.c:
4632 Fixed Savannah bug 4391 (readdir race condition leading to
4633 spurious error messages)
4635 2004-04-24 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4637 * README-CVS: Corrected the instructions for getting gnulib via CVS.
4639 2004-04-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4642 Actioned Savannah bug #8558 (find complains when it tries to recurse
4643 into directories that it had removed).
4645 2004-03-13 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4647 * ChangeLog: Updated from checkin comments.
4650 Oops, there is no access to the predicate name table if DEBUG is
4654 Detect arithmetic overflow (poorly) in insert_time(), which diagnoses
4655 the failure to handle large arguments to -mtime. The existing code
4656 does careful computation and then bungs the value into a time_t, which
4657 ruins all our careful effort. The new code is not a great
4658 improvement. We just check the result to detect overflow, rather than
4659 actually avoiding the overflow.
4662 Fixed Debian bug #185202 by checking for any trailing predicates after
4663 the top-level invocation of get_expr() has done its work.
4665 * locate/locate.1, xargs/xargs.1:
4666 Fixed Debian bug 175372, inappropriate 'L' suffixes on manual
4667 page section indicators

4673 * debian/updatedb.conf:
4674 Updated with list of filesystems from current Debian release. This
4675 includes devfs, for example.
4678 Modified documentation of "-s" option to take into account the fix for
4682 Fixed Debian bug #176201, "xargs enviroment size limited to 20k", by
4683 reading a patch offered by Bob Proulx and implementing something
4684 substantially similar myself.
4686 2004-01-03 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4689 Indicate that prep_child_for_exec() fixes Savannah bug #3992.
4692 Attach the stdin of xargs' child process to /dev/null so that if it
4693 tries to read from its stdin it doesn't consume any of the list of
4694 files that xargs is trying to use.
4697 Documented that the -regex option follows Gnulib's re_match()
4700 * NEWS, locate/locate.c: Applied Savannah patch 2108
4702 * xargs/xargs.c: Applied Savannah patch 1500
4704 * find/find.1, doc/find.texi:
4705 Improved the documentation for the %k and %b format specifiers to
4706 -printf (Savannah bug #5034). Also pointed out that this handling is
4707 different to that used by the "b" and "k" suffixes with "-size".
4709 * find/find.1: Improved the documentation for %k (Savannah bug #5034).
4712 Improved the documentation for -print0 in the manpage, fixing Debian
4715 * README-CVS, find/pred.c, lib/listfile.c:
4716 Brought up-to-date with change in gnulib's human.c - we no longer
4717 use human_readable_inexact(), because it is no longer provided.
4719 2003-08-08 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4722 Documented the fact that -printf also supports the '\0' escape code.
4723 Added "STANDARDS CONFORMANCE" section.
4725 2003-08-02 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4728 Explain that braces are not special when performing filename matching
4732 added example of the use of -exec to the EXAMPLES section
4734 * find/fstype.c, locate/locate.c:
4735 Savannah bug #4295 - implicit declarations of ctype.h functions
4738 Savannah bug #4279 - missing newline on locate help message
4740 * find/find.1, xargs/xargs.1:
4741 Improved discussion of the -print0 option of find and the -0 option of xargs
4743 2003-06-26 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>
4746 Remove reference to nonexistent module "basename" ("dirname" exists
4747 and we already use that).

4765 * ChangeLog, find/find.1, locate/locate.1, locate/locatedb.5, locate/updatedb.1, xargs/xargs.1:
4766 Added BUGS section to manual pages. This section includes information about known bugs and how to report new bugs.
4768 * AUTHORS: Identify the current maintainer.
4770 * TODO: Removed the TODO items which have now been done.
4772 * THANKS: Added Bruno Haible and Bob Proulx.
4774 * xargs/xargs.c: xargs/xargs.c (DO_MULTIBYTE): New macro.
4775 (mbstrstr): New function.
4776 (do_insert): Use it instead of strstr.
4778 * config.guess, config.sub:
4779 Use config.guess and config.sub from automake
4782 Bruno Haible: (fstype_to_string) Don't define this function if
4783 HAVE_F_FSTYPENAME_IN_STATFS is defined.
4786 Bruno Haible: Prefer the 4.4BSD API (if present) to the 4.3BSD API,
4787 because some 4.4BSD systems have <mntent.h> but no /etc/mtab file.
4789 * doc/find.texi, find/find.1:
4790 Applied patch 1498 (documenting the backslash escape sequence)
4792 * locate/updatedb.sh: Applied (my own version of) Savannah patch 1601.
4795 Applied Savannah patch #1547 (document the fact that printf
4796 field-width specifiers are supported).
4799 Applied Savannah patch #1499 (adds final newline to usage message).
4801 2003-06-14 James Youngman <jay@gnu.org>

4809 * intl/dcigettext.c:
4810 plural_lookup: don't use a variable called "index", because we may

4978 probably be handled by automake.
4980 * doc/mdate-sh: removed file in doc directory. It now exists only
4981 in top_srcdir, but this changed required a patch to automake.
4983 2001-05-20 Kevin Dalley <kevin@seti.org>
4987 * lib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): add strcasecmp.c
4989 * find/testsuite/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): new tests:

5006 2001-05-20 Lionel CONS <lionel.cons@cern.ch>
5008 * find/find.c: Fixed security holes. 1. There is a race
5009 condition between the lstat() to detect a symbolic link and the
5010 actual chdir(). 2. An attacker can move directories while find
5011 is _inside_ so that chdir(..) goes out of the intended file tree.
5013 * lib/modetype.h: support for Solaris door files is added.
5015 * lib/filemode.c: S_ISDOOR is undef'ed if STAT_MACROS_BROKEN

5044 * find/find.c (main):
5045 (default_prints): new function
5046 * find/defs.h (struct predicate): added no_default_print
5047 side_effects are no separated from no_default_print. predicates
5048 which cause side effects should not be reordered (optimized).
5049 predicates which cause printing should have printing turned off.
5050 Printing statements also cause side effects.
5052 2000-10-29 Bruno Haible <haible@ilog.fr>
5054 * locate/code.c (main), doc/find.texi: improve handling of
5055 non-ASCII characters used old format.
5057 2000-10-21 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
5059 If open + fchdir fails, fall back on xgetcwd + chdir.
5060 The old code tested for this at compile-time,
5061 but SunOS 4.1.4 fchdir can fail at run-time.
5063 * find/defs.h (fchdir): Define to -1 if not available.
5064 * find/defs.h (starting_dir, starting_desc):
5065 Always declare. starting_dir now points to const.
5066 * find/find.c (starting_dir, starting_desc): Likewise.
5067 * find/find.c (starting_dir):
5068 Now "." if starting_desc is nonnegative, for benefit of diagnostics.
5069 (main, process_top_path, process_dir):
5070 If open + fchdir fails, fall back on xgetcwd + chdir.
5071 * find/pred.c (launch): Likewise.
5073 2000-10-20 Kevin Dalley <kevin@seti.org>
5075 * xargs/xargs.c, locate/updatedb.sh, locate/locate.c (usage),
