1 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnupload.
4 * Makefile.maint (emit_upload_commands): gnupload is now
5 in build-aux.
6 * gnupload: Remove from CVS, since it's now a gnulib module.
8 * bootstrap (bootstrap_conf_cleanup): Remove.
9 (excluded_files): New var.
10 * bootstrap.conf: Likewise.
11 * bootstrap (slurp): Exclude files early if they're in the
12 excluded_files list. That way, their names don't get put into
13 .cvsignore.
15 * aclocal.m4, config.hin, configure:
16 Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically.
17 * .cvsignore: Add INSTALL, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, config.hin,
18 configure, *.cache, *.lineno, *.log.
19 Remove more-specific entries. This catches files like configure.lineno.
20 * man/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in.
21 * src/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in.
22 Remove .version, dir.c, install, mvdir, stamp-v, vdir.c, version.c.

65 * tests/unexpand/.cvsignore:

67 * tests/wc/.cvsignore:
68 Add Makefile.in. Sort entries if necessary. Remove *.I, *.E,
69 *.X, *.O, *-tests, build-script, mk-script if they're never
70 created in this directory.
72 2006-08-22 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
74 BeOS portability.
75 * src/uptime.c: Include OS.h if it exists.
76 (print_uptime): On BeOS, use the get_system_info function (actually a
77 macro). Loop through utmp entries only if utmp.h or utmpx.h exists.
78 (uptime): Call read_utmp only if utmp.h or utmpx.h exists.
80 2006-08-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
82 * .cvsignore: Add ABOUT-NLS.
84 Move the check-AUTHORS rule to be run as part of "make distcheck",
85 rather than "make check".
86 * src/Makefile.am (check): Don't depend on check-AUTHORS; it would
87 cause "make check" to fail on systems unable to build all binaries.
88 * Makefile.maint (check-AUTHORS): New rule.
89 (local-checks-available): Add it here.
90 Reported by Bruno Haible. Needed for BeOS.
92 2006-08-21 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
94 * src/df.c (print_header, show_dev): Use a column width that
95 depends on the block size of -P is specified and not autoscaling.
96 Problem reported by Gustavo G. Rondina in:
97 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00164.html
99 2006-08-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
101 * tests/dircolors/simple (a): Don't fail with an unexpected diagnostic
102 when the shell variable, SHELL, is not set.
103 Trigger the failure with "(unset SHELL; make check TESTS=simple)".
104 Reported by Sven Joachim in <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>.
106 * src/od.c: Now that HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG is no longer defined
107 in config.h, change the uses to HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT.
108 Otherwise, on a system with 4-byte longs, "od -t u8" fails with this:
109 od: invalid type string `u8';
110 this system doesn't provide a 8-byte integral type
111 FIXME: add a test for this, but skip it when sizeof uintmax < 8.
113 2006-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
115 Add a bootstrap procedure, so that the CVS version contains fewer
116 files and we bootstrap the rest from gnulib, gettext, etc.
117 * README-cvs: New file.
118 * bootstrap: New file.
119 * bootstrap.conf: New file.
120 * .x-sc_trailing_blank: Remove config-log, .gdb-history. Add .po.
121 * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Move here from m4/*.m4, for benefit
122 of gnulib-tool.
123 (gl_DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION, gl_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS, gl_PERL):
124 (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Remove; now done by gnulib.
125 (gl_EARLY): Add.
126 (gl_MACROS): Call just after gl_EARLY, just for clarity.
127 * src/c99-to-c98.diff: Remove patch to ls.c; no longer needed.
128 * src/kill.c (strtoimax): Remove decl.
129 * src/ls.c: Include "wcwidth.h" instead of rolling it ourselves.
130 * src/wc.c: Likewise.
131 * src/ls.c (sort_files): Rewrite to avoid need for C99-style
132 declaration, so that we don't need to patch this file.
133 * src/printf.c (strtoimax, strtoumax): Remove decls.
134 * src/su.c: Include getpass.h.
135 (getpass): remove.
136 * src/system.h: Include mempcpy.h, stpcpy.h, strpbrk.h.
137 Include inttypes.h unconditionally.
138 (LONGEST_MODIFIER, PRIdMAX, PRIoMAX, PRIuMAX, PRIxMAX): Remove.
139 (stpcpy, strndup, strstr, strtoul, mempcpy, CHAR_MIN, CHAR_MAX):
140 (SCHAR_MIN, SCHAR_MAX, UCHAR_MAX, SHRT_MIN, SHRT_MAX, INT_MAX):
141 (INT_MIN, INTMAX_MAX, INTMAX_MIN, UINT_MAX, LONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX):
142 (SIZE_MAX, SSIZE_MAX, UINTMAX_MAX): Remove.

166 * tests/unexpand/Makefile.in, tests/uniq/Makefile.in:
167 * tests/wc/Makefile.in:
168 Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically.
170 2006-08-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
172 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Reinstate the patch from 2006-08-15;
173 the patch from 2006-08-18 broke on cygwin.
175 2006-08-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
177 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.2-cvs.
178 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.2 and add "-cvs" suffix.
180 2006-08-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
182 * Version 6.1.
183 * NEWS: Record the 6.1 release date.
184 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
186 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add sparse-file.
188 Avoid test failure when `make check' is run through debuild.
189 * tests/help-version: Ensure that $SHELL is set to some value
190 and exported. Patch from Sven Joachim. For details, see
191 <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>.
193 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Test for the 2006-08-17 `ls -CF' fix.
195 * README: Describe potential "pre-C99 build failure", and work-around.
197 Some of my 2006-07-03 changes to tests/*/Makefile.am were being
198 backed out due to updates provoked by the copyright changes.
199 * tests/Makefile.am.in (PATH): Prepend $(VG_PATH_PREFIX), so that
200 it propagates to the derived Makefile.am files.
201 ($(srcdir)/Makefile.am): Mark generated .am files as read-only,
202 so we don't mistakenly edit them again.
203 * tests/cut/Makefile.am: Regenerate.
204 * tests/head/Makefile.am: Likewise.
205 * tests/join/Makefile.am: Likewise.
206 * tests/pr/Makefile.am: Likewise.

208 * tests/tac/Makefile.am: Likewise.
209 * tests/tail/Makefile.am: Likewise.
210 * tests/test/Makefile.am: Likewise.
211 * tests/tr/Makefile.am: Likewise.
212 * tests/uniq/Makefile.am: Likewise.
213 * tests/wc/Makefile.am: Likewise.
215 * NEWS: Fix cp --sparse so that it preserves tail-end sparseness, even
216 when the file's apparent size is not a multiple of its block size.
217 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't write a NUL before calling ftruncate.
218 For some file sizes, writing that single byte would unnecessarily
219 waste a few file blocks. That write may have been necessary in the
220 early days of Linux, but now, removing it should be safe.
221 Based on a patch by Alan Curry: <http://bugs.debian.org/370792>
222 * tests/cp/sparse: New test for the above.
223 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sparse.
225 * tests/sparse-file: New file, essence factored out of...
226 * tests/du/8gb: ... here. Use the new script.
228 2006-08-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
230 * src/system.h (select_plural): Reduce by 1000000, not 1000, since
231 the CVS gettext manual now suggests 1000000.
233 2006-08-18 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
235 Add support for NetBSD 3.0.
236 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Set to 1 if 'struct statvfs' has a field
237 f_fstypename.
238 (STATXFS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_MEMBER_NAME): Define also if 'struct statvfs'
239 has a field f_fstypename.
240 This undoes the 2006-08-15 to src/stat.c.
242 2006-08-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
244 Copyright notice fixes.

580 2006-08-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
582 ls -CF would misalign columns in some cases.
583 * src/ls.c (get_type_indicator): New function. extracted from...
584 (print_type_indicator): ...here. Use it.
585 (length_of_file_name_and_frills): Use it here, too, rather than
586 assuming stat.st_mode is valid.
587 Reported by Andreas Schwab, here:
588 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7774>
589 See the test for this above. FYI, I did ls -CF /proc and visually
590 inspected the result.
592 * src/copy.c (copy_internal, same_file_ok): Adjust comments not
593 to mention the now-removed cp_options.xstat member.
595 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Adapt to work now that the patch
596 modifies more than one file in src/.
598 With this patch, permit building with Solaris cc on Solaris 7.
599 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add diffs to convert more c99-isms.
600 This integrates patches from Bruno Haible.
602 2006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
604 Fix some problems reported by Bruno Haible.
605 * tests/chmod/setgid (abs_srcdir): Remove; not used or needed.
606 Skip this test if "chmod g+s d" silently does nothing.
607 * tests/ls-2/tests: Skip this test suite if we can't set up files
608 properly for the setuid-etc test. This simplifies some of the
609 hacks we were using to work around porting problems.
611 2006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
613 * tests/cp/Makefile.am: Don't mark "acl" as XFAIL.
614 * tests/cp/acl: Instead, skip the test if either setfacl
615 or getfacl fails.
616 Reported by Michael Stone.
618 2006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
620 * tests/lang-default (LC_ALL): Set to "C", so we get
621 English-language diagnostics. Unset the other variables; it
622 should be portable to use 'unset' for this stuff nowadays.
623 Problem reported by Bruno Haible. Using "C" reverses the
624 2000-10-22 change to fileutils in this area.
626 Fix bugs when printing plurals of numbers that are not
627 unsigned long int values.
628 * src/system.h (select_plural): New function.
629 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check): Use select_plural to avoid bug.
630 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Likewise.
631 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Likewise. Also, don't use ngettext to
632 print a floating point number, as reducing to 0 or 1 doesn't work
633 for some languages. Instead, just use "s" for seconds since it
634 doesn't need a plural form.
636 2006-08-16 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
638 Old versions of gzip would write --help output to stderr, and it
639 would be annoying to see that in the output of every "make" command.
640 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): Throw away stderr output of
641 "gzip --help".
643 2006-08-16 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
645 * tests/cp/acl: Don't use non-portable == operator for test.
647 2006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
649 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use stat to test file system type, rather
650 than df -T, in case /etc/mtab lies. Reported by Michael Stone.
652 2006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
654 * NEWS: Mention that df exits with nonzero status if it generates
655 no output. This change was in 6.0 but inadvertently unmentioned.
656 * src/df.c (file_systems_processed): Renamed from n_valid_args, and now
657 a boolean.
658 (show_dev): Don't set it until we actually output something.
659 Print the header if this is the first output.
660 (main): Don't print a header, as that is now show_dev's job.
661 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df.
662 * tests/misc/df: New file.
664 2006-08-15 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
666 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Define to 0 if f_type is needed, but
667 statvfs.f_type not present. See
668 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=16325>.
670 2006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
672 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Don't substitute "1" for number, as this
673 causes confusion for the Hungarian translators. Problem reported
674 by Egmont Koblinger here:
675 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7726
677 2006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
679 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/at-func.c.
681 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.1-cvs.
682 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.1 and add "-cvs" suffix.
684 2006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
686 * Version 6.0.
687 * NEWS: Record the 6.0 release date.
688 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
690 * TODO: Add an item (convert to use gnulib-tool), add to the plan
691 for id-vs-getgrouplist, and remove a few completed items.
693 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): Fix syntax error.
695 2006-08-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
697 * src/shred.c (usage): Don't indent the second line of an item.
698 Otherwise, help2man would misformat the output.
699 Reported by Adam Buchbinder in <https://launchpad.net/bugs/48917>.
701 2006-08-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
703 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Upgrade to need-formatstring-macros.
704 Suggested by Eric Blake to avoid problems like
705 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-07/msg00087.html>.
707 2006-08-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
709 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Too many (losing) systems trigger the
710 failure that this test checks for (stat/dirent inode mismatch at
711 a mount point), so continue to give a diagnostic about the failure,
712 but don't actually count it as a failure.
714 2006-08-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
716 * ABOUT-NLS: Update from gettext 0.15.
717 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Update from 0.13.1 to 0.15.
719 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Remove fastmap member.
720 (extract_regexp): Allocate fastmap separately, since otherwise
721 it might move due to a realloc. This fixes a bug that led
722 to a core dump on 64-bit sparc Solaris 10 (Sun Studio 10).
724 2006-08-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
726 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: If "." is tmpfs, skip this test unless uname -s
727 reports "Linux". This avoids a failure on Solaris 10's tmpfs.
728 Redirect both stdout and stderr of df invocations.
730 * src/dircolors.hin: Add a TERM directive for each of the following:
731 ansi, color-xterm, gnome, konsole, kterm, rxvt-cygwin,
732 rxvt-cygwin-native, screen.linux, xterm-256color.
733 Sort the TERM directives.
734 From Mike Frysinger.
736 2006-08-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
738 * src/dd.c (usage): Warn about oflag=append without conv=notrunc.
739 See Debian bug 373736.
741 * src/dircolors.hin: Add mlterm, rxvt-unicode; this fixes Debian
742 bug 317503.
744 * src/.cvsignore: Add shuf.
746 * Makefile.maint: Remove the po-update procedure; it doesn't
747 work with the new repository on http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/.
748 For now I guess we'll have to fix things by hand.
749 (do-po-update, po-update): Remove. All references removed.
751 * src/shuf.c (next_line): New function.
752 (read_input): Use it, to avoid relying on GCC-specific behavior
753 with void * arithmetic. Problem reported by Bob Proulx.
754 * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Compile with -Wpointer-arith
755 to detect this sort of problem automatically in the future.
757 2006-08-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
759 * src/ls.c: Add a compile-time check to ensure that filetype
760 and filetype_letter have the same number of elements.
762 * tests/misc/sort-rand: Remove use of --seed=S.
764 2006-08-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
766 Add a command 'shuf', and modify shred and sort to use the new
767 random number generator library of 'shuf'.
769 * AUTHORS: Add shuf.
770 * README: Likewise.
771 * NEWS: Likewise. Mention new --random-source option for shred
772 and sort. Move "sort +1 -2" notice to the appropriate section,
773 and clarify its role with respect to POSIXLY_CORRECT.
774 * man/.cvsignore: Add shuf.1.
775 * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add shuf.1.
776 (shuf.1): New dependency.
777 * man/shuf.x: New file.
778 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add shuf.
779 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rand-isaac.c.
780 (shuf_LDADD): New macro.
781 * src/rand-isaac.c: Remove, moving most of its contents to
782 lib/rand-isaac.c.
783 * src/shuf.c: New file.
784 * src/shred.c: Use new random-number interface rather than rand-isaac.c.
785 Don't include rand-isaac.c; include randint.h and randread.h instead.
786 (RANDOM_SOURCE_OPTION): New enum.
787 (long_opts, usage, main): New option --random-source.
788 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
789 * src/shred.c (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Remove.
790 All callers changed to use randint interface.
791 (fillrand): Remove. All callers changed to use randread interface.
792 (dopass): Remove dependency on ISAAC buffer size.
793 (genpattern): Don't wipe the random state here.
794 (randint_source): New static var.
795 (clear_random_data): New function.
796 (main): Allocate random source, and arrange to wipe it on exit.
797 * src/sort.c: Include md5.h, randread.h, xmemxfrm.h.
798 (longopts, usage, main): Remove undocumented --seed option;
799 it's now replaced by --random-source.
800 (rand_state, get_hash): Remove.
801 (randread_source): New static var.
802 (random_state, cmp_hashes, compare_random): New functions; they guarantee
803 no collisions in the random hash function.
804 (keycompare): Use compare_random for -R; don't fall back on comparing
805 via memcoll, since compare_random does the right thing.
806 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add shuf.
807 * tests/misc/shuf: New file.
809 2006-07-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
811 * src/copy.c (set_author): Preserve the st_author field via the
812 file descriptor dest_desc.
814 2006-07-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
816 * NEWS: chmod now preserves setuid and setgid bits on directories
817 if you use a numeric mode with them clear, e.g., "chmod 755 DIR".
819 Fix test case problems if working directory is setgid,
820 reported by Bob Proulx.
821 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use symbolic mode so that we clear
822 setgid bit more reliably on directories.
823 * tests/mkdir/special-1 (set_mode_string): Likewise.
825 2006-07-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
827 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Use correct grammar in description of the
828 --reference option
829 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
831 2006-07-26 Thomas Schwinge <tschwinge@gnu.org> (tiny change)
833 * src/copy.c (set_author) [HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]:
834 Correctly access SRC_SB's element ST_AUTHOR.
836 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
838 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Adapt to match new expected output.
839 From Paul Eggert.
841 * src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Test for S_IFREG first, rather
842 than having the code test for all of the other types first.
843 Hoist the set-uid/gid-testing code "up" into this new block.
844 Classify any other type of file (e.g., S_TYPEISSHM, etc.) as
845 C_ORPHAN, not as C_FILE.
847 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
849 Checking in a change from Paul.
851 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
853 * src/ls.c (DT_INIT): Remove. All uses removed.
854 (enum filetype): Use an ordinary enum rather than trying to keep
855 the values in sync with DT_FIFO etc. That way, we don't have
856 to make special assumptions about them. All uses changed.
857 (whiteout): New constant member of enum filetype.
858 (filetype_letter): New constant, for use with enum filetype.
859 (FILETYPE_INDICATORS): New initializer list.
860 (print_dir): Add case for DT_WHT.
861 (gobble_file): If stat fails, don't discard information from
862 readdir; instead, preserve it so it can be printed.
863 (print_long_format): Fall back on readdir result if stat info
864 is not available. Use "?" to denote each unknown mode char,
865 instead of an overall "?", since we now know some of the mode
866 typically.
867 (print_type_indicator): Now that MODE isn't necessarily
868 useful, guard all uses.
869 Now that two blocks in the type-checking tree can set "type = C_FILE",
870 move the suffix-handling code out and down.
872 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
874 Prepare for the above change.
875 * src/ls.c [struct fileinfo] (stat_ok): Rename from stat_failed,
876 and adjust uses. From a patch by Paul Eggert.
878 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
880 * src/ls.c: Correct indentation/formatting in a few places.
882 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
884 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use "chmod 0500" rather than "chmod 500".
885 Problem report and fix from Bob Proulx.
886 * NEWS: Clarify the "chmod 0500" news, and correct the vague
887 statements about compatibility with BSD.
889 2006-07-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
891 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): When handling a stat-failed entry,
892 print the entry name not the absolute_name -- to be consistent
893 with the usual case.
894 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Update accordingly.
896 * src/ls.c: Add parens around the new uses of ?: ternary operator.
898 * src/dircolors.hin: Mention that ORPHAN refers not just to dangling
899 symlinks.
901 Get --dired offsets right when handling stat-failed entries.
902 * src/ls.c (print_long_format): Be careful to increment P by the
903 appropriate amount, even when inode_number_width and nlink_width
904 are zero.
905 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Test for the above.
907 * src/ls.c (gobble_file) [USE_ACL]: Don't use-uninitialized the
908 have_acl member. That would happen for a directory with both a
909 non-stat'able entry and one with an ACL.
911 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Make it so failure to stat a
912 non-command-line file provokes an exit status of 1, not 0.
913 Say "cannot access" rather than "cannot stat".
914 * tests/ls/stat-failed: New file/test, for the above.
915 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-failed.
916 * tests/ls-2/tests (no-a-isdir-b): Update to reflect addition
917 of "cannot access " to diagnostic.
919 * src/ls.c: Declare stat_failed to be "bool", not "int" everywhere.
921 * src/ls.c [enum filetype] (command_line): Remove member. Not needed.
922 Replace all occurrences of "type == command_line" with the
923 equivalent, "command_line_arg".
925 * src/ls.c: Apply the stat-failed parts of Red Hat's
926 coreutils-selinux.patch. From Ulrich Drepper.
927 This makes it so files not mentioned on the command line (e.g.,
928 names read from a directory that *is* mentioned on the command
929 line) for which stat fails are still listed. With --color,
930 such files are colored just like ORPHANs (aka dangling symlinks).
932 * src/df.c (n_valid_args): Declare global to be static.
934 2006-07-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
936 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Skip this test on reiserfs, since that file
937 system lacks d_type support.
939 2006-07-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
941 * man/chmod.x: Update to reflect recent changes to coreutils.texi.
943 2006-07-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
945 * src/su.c (usage): Correct typo in --help output: s/commmand/command/
946 Reported by Tim Waugh.
947 Also remove the comment duplicating much of --help output.
949 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): Reposition this new
950 name so the list remains alphabetized.
952 Fix another bug: ls --indicator-style=file-type would call
953 stat for a symlink, even though it wasn't always needed.
954 In some cases, that unnecessary stat would cause ls to fail.
955 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Don't treat symlinks specially (in
956 requiring a stat syscall). Remove the offending exclusion.
958 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
960 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: New file/test, for the above fix.
961 Also exercises the new df feature, below.
963 * src/df.c (main): Fail and don't print the headers if no
964 file system is processed. This makes it easy to test whether
965 a specified directory is on a file system of a given type or types.
966 Otherwise, applications would have had to parse df's output.
967 E.g., is "." either ext3 or reiserfs: df -t ext3 -t reiserfs .
969 Fix a bug: ls --file-type worked like --indicator-style=slash,
970 rather than like --indicator-style=file-type.
971 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): New enum member.
972 (long_options): Map "file-type" to FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION,
973 not to 'p'.
974 (decode_switches): Handle new case: FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION.
975 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
976 * tests/ls-2/tests (file-type): New test, for the above fix.
978 2006-07-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
980 * src/ls.c (print_dir): Give a better diagnostic for failed opendir.
982 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/vc-list-files.
984 2006-07-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
986 * NEWS: chmod, install, and mkdir now leave setgid and setuid bits
987 of directories alone unless you specify them explicitly.
988 install and mkdir now implement X correctly.
989 install now creates parent directories with mode 755, without
990 changing their owner or group.
991 * src/chmod.c (process_file): Adjust to mode_adjust API change.
992 * src/install.c: Include mkancesdirs.h.
993 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions.
994 (DEFAULT_MODE): New macro, specifying initial value of 'mode'.
995 (mode): Use it.
996 (dir_mode, dir_mode_bits): New vars.
997 (main): Set dir modes separately from nondir, so that the X
998 op of -m works correctly.
999 (main): Remove cwd_errno cruft, since make_dir_parents no longer
1000 affects cwd. Adjust to new make_dir_parents API.
1001 (install_file_in_file_parents): 2nd arg is now char *, not char
1002 const *. Use mkancesdirs instead of rolling our own code.
1003 (change_attributes): Don't worry about AFS, since that kludge
1004 should not be needed any more.
1005 * src/mkdir.c (struct mkdir_options): New struct.
1006 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions.
1007 (main): Use them. Adjust to mode_adjust API change. Stick with
1008 umask 0. Use make_dir_parents for all the work.
1009 * src/mkfifo.c (main): Adjust to new mode_adjust API.
1010 * src/mknod.c (main): Likewise.
1011 * tests/chmod/setgid: Do the setgid test instead of bailing.
1012 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Remove re_protect case that no longer applies.
1013 GNU chmod now behaves like other versions of chmod.
1014 * tests/mkdir/perm: Add a test for the X bug.
1016 2006-07-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1018 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Output to parameter OUT, not to stdout.
1019 This doesn't fix any bugs, since OUT always equals stdout, but it
1020 makes the code easier to understand.
1022 2006-07-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1024 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use new file, build-aux/vc-list-files,
1025 rather than open-coding it. Now supports mercurial, too.
1026 * .hgignore: New file.
1027 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .hgignore, which ignores nearly
1028 all generated files, including ones like configure and po/*.po
1029 that are currently version-controlled in cvs.
1031 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add a few more .??* files.
1032 They've been in CVS, just haven't been distributed before this.
1033 Distribute ChangeLog-2005, too.
1034 (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add THANKS-to-translators.
1036 2006-07-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1038 * src/system.h: Assume <dirent.h> exists, since gnulib assumes
1039 this now as well.
1041 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1043 * tests/mv/dir2dir: Adjust so failing with ENOTEMPTY is ok, too.
1044 That happens with Linux/tmpfs.
1045 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir2dir.
1047 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1049 Adjust to recent updates from gnulib.
1050 * src/dd.c (apply_translations): Use toupper rather than
1051 islower followed by toupper; it's simpler and typically
1052 faster now that we assume at least C89 semantics. Similarly
1053 for tolower.
1054 * src/sort.c (inittables): Likewise.
1055 * src/expand.c (expand): Don't assume that isprint etc. return
1056 booleans (needed for pre-C99 hosts).
1057 * src/fmt.c (check_punctuation): Likewise.
1058 * src/ptx.c (initialize_regex, fix_output_parameters): Likewise.
1059 * src/tr.c (is_char_class_member): Likewise.
1060 * src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Likewise.
1061 * src/join.c (is_blank): Remove; no longer needed. All uses
1062 replaced by isblank (to_uchar (...)).
1063 * src/pinky.c (create_fullname): Don't assume char is unsigned.
1064 * src/printf.c (print_esc): Likewise.
1065 * src/ptx.c (SKIP_NON_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE_BACKWARDS):
1066 (copy_unescaped_string): Likewise.
1067 * src/stat.c (print_it): Likewise.
1068 * src/system.h (_D_EXACT_NAMELEN): Renamed from NLENGTH, for
1069 convenience on GNU systems. All uses changed. Don't bother
1070 looking for any dirent.h substitute other than ndir.h.
1071 (D_INO): Remove unnecessary parentheses.
1072 (IN_CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISGRAPH, ISPRINT, ISALNUM, ISALPHA):
1073 (ISCNTRL, ISLOWER, ISPUNCT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER, ISXDIGIT):
1074 (ISDIGIT_LOCALE, TOLOWER, TOUPPER): Remove. All uses changed
1075 to ctype.h equivalents.
1076 (isblank): Renamed from ISBLANK. Check for HAVE_DECL_ISBLANK too.
1077 All uses changed.
1079 2006-07-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1081 * tests/mv/dir2dir: New file, test for 2006-07-05 fix in copy.c.
1083 * Makefile.maint (sc_the_the): New rule.
1085 * src/dd.c (skip): Remove one of two adjacent "the"s in a comment.
1086 * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Remove one of two adjacent "then"s
1087 in a comment.
1089 2006-07-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1091 * NEWS: Mention that mv can now remove an empty destination directory,
1092 and give an example. Prompted by a report from Florent Bayle.
1094 2006-07-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1096 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct the description of -G: it is useful
1097 only in a long listing. Reported by Martin Pool in
1098 <https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/51653>.
1100 * man/chmod.x: Correct the description of the sticky bit. Reported
1101 by Chris Moore via Ian Jackson in <http://bugs.debian.org/376745>.
1103 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't work around old NFS clients like
1104 SunOS-4.1.4 and Irix 5.3 that set errno to values like EIO and
1105 ENOTEMPTY upon failed rename. Otherwise, we risk misinterpreting
1106 a banal failure as a recursive move-into-self failure.
1107 Reported by Florent Bayle in <http://bugs.debian.org/376749>.
1109 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
1111 2006-07-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1113 Plug another unusual leak.
1114 (AD_mark_helper): Free malloc'd filename if hash_insert says
1115 that string is already in the hash table.
1117 The dev/inode of the topmost directory in each hierarchy were not
1118 being recorded.
1119 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Don't call cycle_check here.
1120 (AD_push): Call it from here instead.
1122 Fix two small leaks.
1123 * src/remove.c (AD_stack_clear): New function.
1124 (rm_1): Use it.
1125 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Free *prev_dir just before longjmp.
1127 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/*/Makefile.am: (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
1128 Add $VG_PATH_PREFIX as a prefix to $PATH
1130 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add CDPATH and POSIXLY_CORRECT.
1131 * tests/Makefile.am (evar-check): Remove rule.
1132 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove .env-warn.
1133 * tests/.env-warn: Remove file. No longer used.
1134 Suggestion from Eric Blake.
1136 2006-07-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1138 * src/system.h: Include <stdint.h> unconditionally, since we
1139 now assume the stdint module.
1141 2006-07-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1143 * NEWS: With no operand, 'tail -f' now silently ignores the '-f'
1144 only if standard input is a FIFO or pipe and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
1145 * src/tail.c (main): Implement this.
1146 * tests/tail/Test.pm (f-pipe-1): Renamed from f-1.
1147 (test_vector): Set POSIXLY_CORRECT for the f-pipe-* tests.
1149 2006-07-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1151 * src/ln.c (do_link): Use new, shorter URL, for ag-review link.
1153 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add ^lib/xstrtold\.c$, so make distcheck
1154 passes once again.
1156 2006-06-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1158 * NEWS: seq now uses long double internally rather than double.
1159 It now defaults to a minimal fixed point format if possible.
1160 It lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, %G.
1161 * src/Makefile.am (seq_LDADD): Remove $(SEQ_LIBM); add $(POW_LIB).
1162 * src/seq.c: Don't include <math.h> or <xstrtol.h>; no longer needed.
1163 (isfinite) [!defined isfinite]: New macro.
1164 (separator, terminator): Now points to const.
1165 (first, step, last): Remove.
1166 (usage): Update to match new behavior.
1167 (struct operand, operand): New type.
1168 (scan_arg): Renamed from scan_double_arg, since we no longer use double.
1169 All uses changed.
1170 Compute and return a value of type operand, not double.
1171 (long_double_format): Renamed from valid_format, and now returns a
1172 new format with an "L" added if needed, if the original format was
1173 valid. Allow %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats.
1174 (print_numbers): Take numeric values as args rather than from globals.
1175 Print long double, not double.
1176 (get_width_format): Remove.
1177 (get_default_format): New function.
1178 (main): Implement new way of calculating default format.
1179 Don't worry about locale's representation of the decimal point, since
1180 the arguments are always processed in the C locale.
1181 * tests/seq/basic (neg-2): Adjust to new default format.
1182 (eq-wid-1, eq-wid-2): Resurrect these tests, since the new
1183 implementation should do the right thing.
1185 2006-06-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1187 * tests/stty/basic-1: Work around an intermittent test failure
1188 on HP-UX 11.11. Report and analysis from Bob Proulx.
1189 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7475
1191 2006-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1193 * NEWS: Support obsolete usages like "sort +1 -2" even when
1194 conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001, since this is a pure extension to
1195 POSIX. Problem reported by Christian in:
1196 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00220.html
1197 * src/sort.c (main): Implement this.
1199 * src/system.h (CLOSEDIR): Remove. All uses changed to closedir.
1200 Autoconf 2.60 says this stuff was obsolete.
1202 2006-06-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1204 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
1206 2006-06-28 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
1208 * tests/mv/i-link-no: Work around HP-UX /bin/sh tracing problem
1209 (set -x when VERBOSE=yes) when stderr is redirected before stdout
1210 causing shell tracing of the stdout redirection to be written to
1211 the stderr file. Avoid problem and test failure on HP-UX by
1212 redirecting stderr last.
1213 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Order shell file redirections for
1214 stderr and stdout in the common style.
1215 tests/acl: Likewise.
1217 2006-06-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1219 * tests/misc/cat-proc: Try to avoid any spurious numeric
1220 differences in frequently-changing /proc/cpuinfo.
1221 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
1223 2006-06-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1225 Attempt rmdir (actually, unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR) upon any
1226 fd_to_subdirp failure, not just when errno == EACCES.
1227 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Use unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR, not
1228 rmdir, here, even though rmdir may happen to be adequate.
1230 * NEWS: rm no longer fails to remove an empty, unreadable directory
1231 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): If we can't open a directory,
1232 and the failure is not being ignored, try to remove the directory
1233 with rmdir (aka unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR), in case it's empty.
1234 Problem report and test case from Paul Eggert in
1235 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7425>.
1237 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test, for the above.
1239 Avoid a segfault for wc --files0=- < /dev/null.
1240 * src/wc.c (compute_number_width): Return right away if nfiles == 0.
1242 2006-06-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1244 * NEWS: wc accepts a new option --files0-from=FILE, where FILE
1245 contains a list of NUL-separated file names.
1247 * src/wc.c: Include "readtokens.h".
1248 (usage): Describe the new option, and adjust the `Usage':
1249 with this option, no FILE may be specified on the command line.
1250 (main): Handle the new option.
1251 * tests/misc/wc-files0: New tests, for the above.
1252 * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: Likewise.
1253 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add wc-files0.
1255 2006-06-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1257 * src/md5sum.c (DIGEST_BUFFER): Remove now-unused definitions.
1259 2006-06-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1261 * src/tee.c (tee_files): Rename from tee, to avoid conflict with
1262 the function in glibc's <fcntl.h>. Reported by Andreas Schwab.
1264 2006-06-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1266 * Makefile.cfg (local-checks-to-skip): Add changelog-check,
1267 so this check is not run as part of "make distcheck".
1269 2006-06-18 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
1271 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Fix typo (s/neq/ne/) in previous change.
1273 2006-06-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1275 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Make error output a little clearer.
1277 2006-06-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1279 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Skip this test on systems without openat
1280 support. Reported by Bob Proulx.
1282 2006-06-15 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
1284 * tests/misc/mknod: Improve permission checks to handle
1285 running mkdir test in set-gid directories.
1287 2006-06-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1289 * tests/du/basic: Revamp not to hard-code file system block sizes.
1291 2006-06-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1293 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass $(PERL), for
1294 files0-from test.
1296 2006-06-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1298 * .gitignore: New file.
1299 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .gitignore.
1301 Setting TIME_STYLE=long-iso in the environment would make the
1302 cp/same-file test fail.
1303 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add TIME_STYLE to the list.
1304 * tests/cp/same-file: Revert last change.
1305 Source the envvar-check script, to ensure that TIME_STYLE
1306 settings don't affect these tests.
1308 2006-06-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1310 * tests/cp/same-file: Execute 'ls' in the C locale, so that it
1311 uses POSIX time stamp formats. Problem reported by John Nixon in
1312 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00062.html>.
1314 2006-06-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1316 * NEWS: Mention the AIX-strndup-bug vs. dircolors workaround.
1318 Require a "Version N.M" line at the top of the ChangeLog
1319 file only when making the actual release, not when running
1320 "make distcheck".
1321 * Makefile.maint (maintainer-distcheck): Don't depend on
1322 changelog-check.
1323 (alpha beta major): Depend on it here, instead.
1325 2006-06-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1327 Ensure that cat works with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T,
1328 when applied to files in /proc and /sys, even when the FIONREAD
1329 ioctl produces nonsensical results. Before this change, cat would
1330 produce no output (or truncated output), for some linux kernels.
1332 * src/cat.c (write_pending): New function, factored out of cat.
1333 (cat): Also interpret a negative ioctl/FIONREAD count as indicating
1334 that there are bytes to read. Some versions of linux-2.6.16 do that.
1335 Write any pending output before returning.
1336 Reported by Dan Jacobson in <http://bugs.debian.org/370583>.
1337 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
1338 * tests/misc/cat-proc: New file. Test for the above.
1339 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cat-proc.
1341 2006-06-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1343 * src/expr.c (eval4): Detect overflow properly when multiplying
1344 INTMAX_MIN * -1.
1346 2006-06-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1348 * NEWS: The 'expr' command now detects and reports integer overflow.
1349 (It would be better to use extended precision instead, but that
1350 would be more work.)
1351 * src/expr.c (integer_overflow): New function.
1352 (eval4, eval3): Check for integer overflow.
1354 2006-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1356 Fix problems when building with Solaris/SVR4/etc. make, which uses a
1357 different and somewhat bogus implementation of VPATH. In the
1358 directory tests/misc, rename tests whose names might appear in the
1359 Automake-generated rules. For example, we can't use a test named
1360 'test', since Automake generates a rule that contains the text
1361 "if test -f ./$$tst; ...", and this might expand to something like
1362 "if ../../../coreutils-6.0/tests/misc/test -f ./$$test; ...",
1363 which executes the 'test' script rather than the 'test' command.
1364 * tests/misc/false-status: Renamed from tests/misc/false.
1365 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Renamed from tests/misc/pwd.
1366 * tests/misc/sort-merge: Renamed from tests/misc/sort.
1367 ($prog): Set to 'sort' rather than to $PROG.
1368 * tests/misc/test-diag: Renamed from tests/misc/test.
1369 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (PROG): Take the basename of $$tst,
1370 in case Solaris make has prepended the directory.
1371 (TESTS): Adjust to above renamings.
1372 * tests/misc/expand: Don't assign to PROG; no longer needed
1373 now that Makefile.am sets PROG to the basename.
1374 * tests/misc/fold: Likewise.
1376 2006-06-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1378 Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the
1379 link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link.
1380 * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use
1381 the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing.
1382 Based on the patch by Aurelien Jarno: <http://bugs.debian.org/329451>
1383 * tests/cp/link-no-deref: New file/test for the above.
1384 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-no-deref.
1385 * NEWS: Mention the change (doesn't affect Linux).
1387 2006-06-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1389 Fix some porting problems in the test cases reported by
1390 Ralf Wildenhues for HP-UX 11.23 in:
1391 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00238.html
1392 * tests/help-version: Don't assume that \< \> works in sed.
1393 * tests/misc/close-stdout: Don't assume that >&- works.
1394 Add a /dev/full test.
1395 * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Don't assume that >&- works.
1397 2006-05-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1399 * src/ls.c (usage): Add `v' to the list of sorting-related options.
1400 From Justin Pryzby.
1402 2006-05-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1404 * tests/cp/fail-perm: source lang-default.
1405 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Likewise.
1407 2006-05-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1409 * tests/rm/inaccessible: AIX 4.3.3 gives a different diagnostic.
1410 Recognize it, too. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues, in
1411 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html
1413 2006-05-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1415 * src/chgrp.c: Support new options: --preserve-root and
1416 --no-preserve-root. Somehow this program was skipped when those
1417 options were added to chown, chmod, and rm. Reported by
1418 vaqflabuopac@spammotel.com in <http://bugs.debian.org/365656>.
1419 * NEWS: Mention this.
1421 2006-05-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1423 * NEWS: Remove mention of --seed. We'll replace it with something
1424 better, and don't want to indicate that it is supported.
1425 * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise.
1427 2006-05-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1429 * src/chmod.c (main): Use FTS_PHYSICAL here, too.
1431 * src/du.c (main): Rename local, s/symlink_deref_bit/symlink_deref_bits/
1432 and arrange for -D to set fts' FTS_PHYSICAL bit as well as
1433 FTS_COMFOLLOW. Spotted by Justin Pryzby.
1435 * gnupload: Merge changes from automake, retaining the ""--to...
1436 kludge to placate overzealous `make distcheck' check.
1438 2006-05-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1440 * src/du.c (main): Don't let -D, -L, or -P turn off the internal
1441 FTS_TIGHT_CYCLE_CHECK directory traversal option.
1442 Reported by Justin Pryzby in http://bugs.debian.org/367691
1444 2006-05-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1446 * src/cp.c (usage): Correct description of -a: s/-dpR/-dpPR/.
1447 From Tomas Pospisek.
1449 2006-05-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1451 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: Test two more cases.
1453 2006-05-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1455 mv -T DIR EMPTY_DIR no longer fails unconditionally
1456 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't manually prohibit a move where
1457 the destination is an existing directory. Sometimes doing that is
1458 valid. Let the rename system call enforce the rules. That is
1459 allowed only when the source is a directory and the destination
1460 directory (to be replaced) is empty. Reported by Eric Blake.
1461 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: New file/test for this.
1462 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add no-target-dir.
1463 * NEWS: Mention this.
1465 * tests/mv/atomic: New file/test for yesterday's fix.
1466 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add atomic.
1468 * tests/du/long-sloop: Avoid harmless `ambiguous redirect' diagnostic.
1470 2006-05-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1472 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't explicitly unlink the destination
1473 when moving a symlink into the place of an existing non-directory.
1474 Reported by Joshua Hudson.
1475 * NEWS: mention this.
1477 2006-05-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1479 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Fail if patch generates any output,
1480 even merely for changed offsets.
1482 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust to reflect new offsets.
1484 * NEWS: Mention changes affecting df, pwd, shred.
1486 2006-05-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1488 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: New test, to detect the bogus file
1489 system condition where dirent.d_ino != stat.st_ino.
1490 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-vs-dirent.
1492 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1494 * tests/ls/inode: Expand to test inode from readdir case.
1495 * tests/ls/follow-slink: Expand to test broken links encountered
1496 implicitly, favoring Solaris 9 and OpenBSD 3.4 behavior.
1498 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1500 * tests/mv/leak-fd: Work even on case-insensitive file system.
1502 2006-05-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1504 * NEWS: Mention the 2006-03-19 pwd-related change that makes
1505 lib/getcwd.c work around inconsistent file system dirent.d_ino data.
1507 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1509 * src/ls.c (DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS, LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS):
1510 Use better macro parameter names: s/basename/key_name/,
1511 s/basefunc/key_cmp_func. Fix typo in comment.
1513 2006-04-29 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1515 * src/ls.c (main): On systems with d_type, directories_first only
1516 implies format_needs_type, not format_needs_stat.
1518 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1520 * src/ls.c (xstrcoll_df_version, rev_xstrcoll_df_version): Add space
1521 after comma in arg list, from Eric Blake.
1523 2006-04-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1525 * tests/misc/date (relative-3): New test, derived from a bug
1526 report by John Thomas McDole.
1528 2006-04-23 Francesco Montorsi <fr_m@hotmail.com>
1530 New option for ls: --group-directories-first.
1531 It makes ls list directories before files.
1532 * NEWS [New features]: Mention it.
1533 * src/ls.c (sort_type): Rearrange to use as an array index when
1534 choosing sort function; added new sort_numtypes member for
1535 compile-time check.
1536 (time_type): Add new time_numtypes member for compile-time check.
1537 (directories_first): New global variable.
1538 (GROUP_DIRECTORIES_FIRST_OPTION): New enum.
1539 (long_options): Add --directories-first.
1540 (main): Support new option.
1541 (is_directory): New function.
1542 (extract_dirs_from_files): Use it.
1543 (DIRFIRST_CHECK, DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS)
1544 (LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS): New macros.
1545 (sort_functions): New global variable.
1546 (sort_files): Use it.
1547 (usage): Document new option.
1549 2006-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1551 * src/shred.c (fillrand): The assertion was way too weak, due to
1552 what must be a typo. Strengthen it to its intended value.
1553 (dopass): Don't use alloca; it's not worth the aggravation here,
1554 since it's used only to get a page-aligned buffer, and page
1555 alignment doesn't buy us much here. I'm suspicious that alloca
1556 causes problems on some hosts, due to a recent bug report by Adam
1557 Waltman: http://bugs.gentoo.org/130246.
1559 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1561 * tests/misc/tty-eof: Add new programs, base64, sha224sum, sha256sum,
1562 sha384sum, sha512sum.
1564 2006-04-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1566 * src/chmod.c (describe_change): Adjust to filemode changes.
1567 * src/ls.c (HAVE_ST_DM_MODE): Remove; moved to ../lib/filemode.c.
1568 (print_long_format): Use (new) filemodestring rather than
1569 (old) mode_string, so that we get more file types right, at least
1570 in theory. Adjust to filemode changes.
1571 * src/stat.c (human_access): Likewise.
1573 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1575 * src/ptx.c (main) [DEFAULT_IGNORE_FILE]: Remove code to use a default
1576 ignore file. This has never been enabled. Reported by Eric Blake.
1578 2006-04-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1580 * src/ln.c (linkfunc): Remove. This method ran into a compiler/linker
1581 bug in Interix. Just call symlink or link directly. All uses changed.
1582 * src/setuidgid.c (main) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Don't call setgroups.
1583 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): New macro.
1584 Include <sys/statvfs.h> and use statvfs only if USE_STATVFS.
1585 (NAMEMAX_FORMAT): define a bit more clearly, now that the
1586 statvfs-using code is a bit more regular.
1587 * src/system.h (sync) [!HAVE_SYNC]: New macro.
1589 2006-04-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1591 * NEWS: csplit, nl, expr now conform to POSIX better, and are
1592 more-compatible with traditional Unix, with respect to regular
1593 expressions.
1594 * src/csplit.c (extract_regexp): Set re_syntax_options to a
1595 value that is compatible with what POSIX requires.
1596 * src/nl.c (build_type_arg): Likewise.
1597 * src/expr.c (docolon): Likewise. Also, don't let anchors match
1598 newline; this fixes an incompatibility with tradition and with POSIX.
1599 Don't warn about leading ^. POSIX says it is unspecified whether
1600 ^ is a special character, which means that implementations can
1601 either treat it as special or not, but either way a warning is not
1602 allowed (unless the regexp is otherwise invalid). Instead, anchor
1603 the expression but treat ^ as an anchor; this is the traditional
1604 behavior (e.g., Solaris 10).
1605 (eval4, eval3, eval2): Treat non-numeric args, division by zero,
1606 and the like as invalid expressions (exit status 2), not as
1607 failure of 'expr' (exit status 3). This is more consistent with
1608 how Solaris behaves.
1609 * tests/expr/basic (fail-a): Adjust exit status to match new expr
1610 behavior, for status 2 versus 3.
1611 (anchor): New test.
1612 (bre1, bre2, bre3, bre4, bre5, bre6, bre7, bre8, bre9, bre10):
1613 (bre11, bre12, bre13, bre14, bre15, bre16, bre17, bre18, bre19, bre20):
1614 (bre21, bre22, bre23, bre24, bre25, bre26, bre27, bre28, bre29, bre30):
1615 (bre31, bre32, bre33, bre34, bre35, bre36, bre37, bre38, bre39, bre40):
1616 (bre41, bre42, bre43, bre44, bre45, bre46, bre47, bre48, bre49, bre50):
1617 (bre51, bre52, bre53, bre54, bre55, bre56, bre57, bre58, bre59, bre60):
1618 (bre61, bre62): New tests.
1619 * tests/misc/csplit: Use \{...\} in test RE, to test that we're
1620 conforming to POSIX.
1622 Port to Solaris 8.
1623 * tests/du/long-from-unreachable: Solaris 8 sh doesn't understand
1624 "if !". Do not assume that 'sed' can handle long, newline-free input.
1625 * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. Evaluate expr once, not $n times.
1627 2006-04-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1629 Adjust to new regex.h API (with new fastmap type), and clean
1630 up the regex storage allocation a bit.
1632 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Put re_compiled member at the
1633 end, since it's large. Change regexpr member from char * to bool;
1634 all uses changed. Add new member fastmap.
1635 (extract_regexp): regexp arg is now char const *, not char *.
1636 Don't bother duplicating the regular expression; it's not needed.
1637 Set fastmap from new fastmap member. Don't bother allocating
1638 a buffer, as the regexp code does a better job than we do.
1639 * src/expr.c (docolon): Allocate and use a fastmap.
1640 Don't bother allocating a buffer.
1641 * src/nl.c (body_fastmap, header_fastmap, footer_fastmap):
1642 New vars.
1643 (build_type_arg): New fastmap arg. All uses changed.
1644 Don't bother allocating a buffer, but set a fastmap.
1645 * src/ptx.c (context_regex_string, word_regex_string): Remove.
1646 (context_regex, word_regex): New vars, replacing the above.
1647 All uses changed.
1648 (struct regex_data): New type.
1649 (compile_regex): Renamed from alloc_and_compile_regex, since
1650 we no longer allocate storage. Arg is now a struct regex_data *,
1651 not a const char *. All uses changed. Don't allocate the fastmap;
1652 instead, take it from the caller. Don't convert size_t to int,
1653 to avoid arithmetic overflow problems. Don't bother freeing
1654 storage afterwards; it's not worth the aggravation.
1655 * src/tac.c (compiled_separator_fastmap): New ver.
1656 (main): Use it. Don't bother allocating a buffer.
1658 2006-03-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1660 * src/dd.c (iwrite): Remove assignment without effect.
1661 Reported by Felix Rauch Valenti.
1663 2006-03-22 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1665 * src/ptx.c (usage): Remove mention of --copyright/-C.
1666 (main): Alias --copyright to --version plus a deprecation warning.
1667 * NEWS: Mention this.
1669 2006-03-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1671 * src/Makefile.am (uptime_LDADD): Add $(POW_LIB), for uptime's
1672 use of strtod. Tiny patch from Nickolai Zeldovich.
1674 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1676 * tests/misc/dirname: New file.
1677 * tests/basename/Makefile.am: Delete.
1678 * tests/basename/basic: Move to...
1679 * tests/misc/basename: ... this new file. Add some tests,
1680 including fixed behavior for //.
1681 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Sort. Add basename, dirname.
1682 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove basename.
1683 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove tests/basename.
1685 Improvements to dirname/basename handling on platforms like
1686 cygwin with distinct // and with drive letters.
1687 * NEWS: Document new behavior.
1688 * src/basename.c (main): Don't strip suffix from file system
1689 roots.
1690 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Use new last_component.
1691 (ASSIGN_BASENAME_STRDUPA): Likewise. Reduce time spent
1692 traversing the string.
1693 * src/dircolors.c (guess_shell_syntax): Use new last_component.
1694 * src/install.c (target_directory_operand, install_file_in_dir):
1695 Likewise.
1696 * src/ln.c (target_directory_operand, main): Likewise.
1697 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Likewise.
1698 * src/mv.c (target_directory_operand, movefile): Likewise.
1699 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Likewise.
1700 * src/shred.c (wipename): Likewise.
1701 * src/split.c (next_file_name): Likewise.
1702 * src/su.c (log_su, run_shell): Likewise.
1704 2006-03-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1706 * NEWS: nohup diagnostics are now more precise, and nohup now
1707 redirects stderr to nohup.out if stdout is closed and stderr is a tty.
1708 * src/nohup.c (main): Implement this.
1709 * tests/misc/nohup: Test the new behavior.
1711 2006-03-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1713 * src/copy.c (set_author): Rename function, from preserve_author.
1715 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use new macro,
1716 CYCLE_CHECK_REFLECT_CHDIR_UP, rather than open-coding it.
1718 * src/system.h (SAME_INODE): Remove definition.
1719 Include "same-inode.h", instead.
1721 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1723 * src/pwd.c (robust_getcwd): Prepend only one slash, not two.
1725 2006-03-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1727 Fix a bug whereby a user with write access to a directory being removed
1728 could cause the removal of that directory to fail with an erroneous
1729 diagnostic about a directory cycle. Reported by Vineet Chadha.
1731 * NEWS: Mention this.
1732 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): If the directory we're about to
1733 leave (and try to rmdir) is the one whose dev_ino is being used to
1734 detect a cycle, reset cycle_check_state.dev_ino to that of the parent.
1736 2006-03-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1738 * NEWS: Document dd's new 'directory' and 'nolinks' flags.
1739 * src/dd.c (set_fd_flags): Handle file-creation flags on file
1740 descriptors, rather than ignoring them.
1741 * tests/dd/misc: Add test cases for append, nofollow, directory,
1742 and nolinks flags. Simplify redirection to /dev/null in some cases.
1744 * tests/dd/misc: iflags->iflag. This fixes a typo that meant the
1745 noatime test never tested anything.
1747 2006-03-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1749 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): New flags directory, nolinks.
1750 * src/system.h (O_NOLINKS): Define to 0 if not already defined.
1752 * src/ls.c (usage): Mention that -f disables --color.
1753 Problem reported by Niels Möller.
1755 2006-03-03 Justin Pryzby <pryzbyj@justinpryzby.com>
1757 * man/*.x: Add references to syscalls from utilities of the same name.
1759 2006-03-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1761 * tests/help-version: Set SHELL, if not already set, in order to
1762 avoid failure when `make check' is run through debuild; dircolors
1763 would fail due to lack of $SHELL. Reported by Sven Joachim.
1765 Make `base64 --wrap=N' work for N=0, and for N larger than SIZE_MAX.
1766 * src/base64.c (wrap_write, do_encode, main): Change type of
1767 parameters and locals, wrap_column, form size_t to uintmax_t.
1768 (main): Adjust to use xstrtoumax, accordingly.
1770 2006-03-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1772 Don't fail when run from an environment with SHELL not a Bourne
1773 shell, e.g. `env SHELL=/bin/csh make check' would fail this test.
1774 * tests/dircolors/simple: Invoke each non-failing test with -b.
1775 Reported by Michael Stone.
1777 2006-02-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1779 * tests/misc/base64: Derive --decode-using tests from the
1780 encode-based ones.
1782 * tests/misc/base64: Factor out a long constant string.
1783 Split lines to stay within 80 columns.
1785 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add base64.
1786 * tests/misc/base64: Test base64. From Simon Josefsson.
1788 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Use correct type for parameter,
1789 ignore_garbage: s/size_t/bool/.
1791 * src/base64.c: Don't include .h files already included by system.h:
1792 <string.h>, <stdlib.h>, <stdbool.h>, <limits.h>, <errno.h>.
1793 Include "system.h" before the other lib/*.h header files.
1794 Include <sys/types.h> before "system.h".
1795 (wrap_write): Remove declaration of unused local, initial_column.
1796 (wrap_write): Correct declaration syntax: s/size_t * V/size_t *V/.
1798 * README: Add base64 to the list.
1800 2006-02-17 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com>
1802 New program: base64.
1803 * AUTHORS: Mention base64.

1808 * src/base64.c: New file.
1810 2006-02-25 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1812 In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible.

1814 * src/system.h: ... here, for use in ...
1815 * src/ls.c (main): ... here. Prefer dirent.d_ino to stat when
1816 possible.
1817 (gobble_file): Add inode argument.
1818 (print_dir): Pass inode if available.
1819 (usage): Remove inaccuracy.
1821 2006-02-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

1828 * src/join.c (usage): Likewise.
1829 Documentation problem reported by Philip Kensche.
1831 2006-02-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1833 * man/rm.x: Update documentation to match previous patch.
1835 2006-02-18 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1837 New option for rm: --interactive=once (-I).
1838 * NEWS: Document it, along with change to rm --interactive.
1839 * TODO: Remove entry for implementing rm -I
1840 * src/rm.c (INTERACTIVE_OPTION): New enum value.
1841 (interactive_type): New enum.
1842 (long_opts): Let interactive take an optional argument.
1843 (interactive_args, interactive_types): New option arguments.
1844 (usage): Document -I, --interactive=WHEN. Use program_name
1845 instead of a basename.
1846 (main): New -I option, new behavior to --interactive.
1847 * tests/rm/interactive-once: New tests.
1848 * tests/rm/interactive-always: Ditto.
1849 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run them.
1851 2006-02-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1853 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): Make the regular
1854 expression match more of the target lines, e.g., those that start with
1855 `-S,' (short option followed by a comma) or that include `=[...]'.
1856 Patch by Nicolas François.
1857 Fix the four offenders thus exposed:
1858 * src/join.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
1859 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
1860 the derived man page properly.
1861 * src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.
1862 * src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise.
1863 * src/install.c (usage): Likewise.
1865 2006-02-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

1870 2006-02-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1872 * INSTALL: Update from gnulib.
1874 2006-02-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

1878 2006-02-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1880 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): New target.
1881 (local-checks-available): Add to the list.
1883 2006-02-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1885 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: New file.
1886 * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add c99-to-c89.diff.
1888 * .x-po-check: New file, with exclusions so that `make distcheck'
1889 passes once again.
1890 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-po-check.
1892 rm -r must remove an empty directory, even if it is inaccessible.
1893 * src/remove.c (close_preserve_errno): New function.
1894 (fd_to_subdirp): Don't print a diagnostic in this function.
1895 Do it from the callers instead, unless rmdir succeeds.
1896 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir): Adjust callers.
1897 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test for the above.
1898 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add empty-inacc.
1899 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
1900 * tests/rm/rm2: Adjust two expected diagnostics, now that they're
1901 a tiny bit less precise: cannot remove `a/1': ... instead of
1902 cannot open directory `a/1': ...
1904 * Makefile.maint (syntax-check-rules): Automatically derive this
1905 list of sc_-prefixed rule names.
1907 2006-02-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1909 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Don't assume cvsu is available.
1910 (CVS_LIST_EXCEPT): New macro, to simplify exception-processing.
1911 Most uses of CVS_LIST changed to use CVS_LIST_EXCEPT.
1912 (syntax-check-rules): Bring back sc_changelong. (Hmm, why did it
1913 go away? was that an accident?)
1914 (sc_cast_of_argument_to_free, sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value):
1915 (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value, sc_space_tab, sc_prohibit_atoi_atof):
1916 (sc_error_exit_success, sc_file_system, sc_no_if_have_config_h):
1917 (sc_system_h_headers, sc_sun_os_names, sc_trailing_blank):
1918 (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage, sc_unmarked_diagnostics):
1919 (sc_obsolete_symbols, sc_changelog, sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4):
1920 (sc_useless_cpp_parens, makefile-check, m4-check, po-check):
1921 (author_mark_check, makefile_path_separator_check):
1922 Output line numbers, to simplify navigation of Emacs *compilation*
1923 buffers.
1924 (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof, sc_file_system):
1925 Rework slightly so that Makefile.maint doesn't get reported as a
1926 violation of its own syntax rules.
1927 (sc_dd_max_sym_length): Use ifneq to do nothing, instead of doing
1928 it at run-time (which didn't work with Bison). Fix a makefile typo,
1929 caught by Makefile.maint itself: spaces where a tab should be.
1930 (po-check): Check lib/*.[ch] even if not in CVS; used by Bison,
1931 which copies from ../gnulib/lib/*.[ch] to lib/*.[ch].
1932 Ignore djgpp and man subdirectories, to avoid false matches with
1933 Bison and coreutils, respectively. Use sort -u to remove the
1934 resulting duplicates.
1935 * gnupload: Rework slightly to avoid bogus warning from
1936 sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
1938 2006-02-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1940 Use gzip's --rsyncable option only if it's available.
1941 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): New variable.
1942 (GZIP_ENV): Use it.
1944 2006-02-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1946 * Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Define in terms of
1947 the expansion, $(syntax-check-rules), rather than the single,
1948 top-level target `syntax-check', so that it's easier to exclude
1949 individual rules (via $(local-checks-to-skip)).
1950 (tgz-md5, tgz-sha1, ...): Remove now-unused definitions.
1952 2006-02-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1954 * src/system.h (!defined O_DIRECT): If O_DIRECTIO is defined (as it
1955 is on Tru64), define O_DIRECT to that. Patch From James Lemley.
1957 * tests/help-version (expected_failure_status_vdir):
1958 Redirect an expected disk-full diagnostic to /dev/null.
1960 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1962 * src/unexpand.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
1963 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
1964 the derived man page properly.
1965 * src/rm.c (usage): Likewise for --no-preserve-root.
1966 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
1967 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise.
1969 Add a rule to ensure that the above doesn't happen again.
1970 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): New rule.
1971 (syntax-check-rules): Add it.
1972 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: New empty file.
1973 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
1975 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1977 * src/cp.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate each
1978 option string from its description, so help2man formats the
1979 derived man page properly.
1980 * src/mv.c (usage): Likewise.
1981 Patch from Nicolas François in http://bugs.debian.org/351601.
1983 2006-02-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1985 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): cp -RL would fail when encountering
1986 the same directory more than once in the hierarchy beneath a single
1987 command-line argument. That is legitimate, e.g. when there are
1988 two or more symbolic links, each pointing to some directory that
1989 would not otherwise be copied. Reported by Christophe LYON.
1990 * tests/cp/cp-deref: New file. Test for today's fix.
1991 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-deref.
1992 * NEWS: Document this.
1994 2006-02-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1996 * configure.ac: Require automake-1.9.6, not 1.8.3.
1998 2006-02-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2000 * src/od.c (usage): Mention that -t a ignores high order bit.
2001 Documentation problem reported by Ed Avis.
2003 2006-02-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2005 * src/pwd.c (find_dir_entry): Remove unused local, `ent_sb_valid'.
2007 2006-01-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2009 * src/head.c (main): Use a better diagnostic when someone uses a
2010 trailing numeric option in an invalid way. Problem reported by
2011 Karl Berry.
2012 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Likewise.
2014 2006-01-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2016 * man/wc.x: Include `count' keyword in man page synopsis,
2017 per suggestion from http://bugs.debian.org/181585.
2019 2006-01-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2021 * src/df.c (show_dev): If the file system claims to have
2022 more available than total blocks, report the number of used
2023 blocks as being total - available (a negative number) rather
2024 than as garbage. Problem reported by Toralf Foerster.
2026 2006-01-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2028 * src/tail.c (tail_forever): Don't exit-nonzero when an attempt
2029 to put a regular file in O_NONBLOCK mode fails with EPERM.
2030 That happens on Linux (up to 2.6.15) when using tail -f on a file with
2031 the append-only attribute. Reported by Dean Gaudet. For details,
2032 see http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15473.
2033 * NEWS: Mention this fix.
2034 * tests/tail-2/append-only: New file. Test for the above.
2035 * tests/tail-2/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add append-only.
2036 * tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Add tail-2/append-only
2038 2006-01-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2040 * NEWS: Mention fts-related improvements and bug fixes.
2042 2006-01-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2044 * tests/fmt/basic (pfx-1, pfx-2): New tests, to demonstrate the bug
2045 reported as http://bugs.debian.org/147577. Forwarded by Thomas Hood.
2047 2006-01-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2049 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-from-unreadable.
2051 2006-01-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2053 Now that fts no longer changes the current working directory, adjust
2054 its clients accordingly -- note that du.c uses fts but doesn't need
2055 any adjustment, since it doesn't operate on the actual files,
2056 but rather just uses the stat buffers provided by fts.
2058 * src/chown-core.c: Include "openat.h".
2059 Don't include "lchown.h".
2060 (restricted_chown): Accept a new parameter, CWD_FD, and use it in
2061 calling openat, lchownat, chownat, rather than open, lchown, chown.
2062 Update caller.
2063 * src/chmod.c: Include "openat.h".
2064 (process_file): Use chmodat (fts->fts_cwd_fd,... in place of chmod (...
2066 * tests/du/long-from-unreadable: New test, to exercise one small
2067 corner of fts.c.
2069 2006-01-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2071 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add comments discouraging the
2072 addition of new directories under tests/.
2074 * tests/acl: Redirect stdin to /dev/null. Otherwise, FreeBSD 5.0's
2075 getfacl would hang.
2077 2006-01-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2079 * tests/du/long-sloop: Adjust not to hard-code the expected
2080 diagnostic corresponding to ELOOP. Solaris' diagnostic differs
2081 from that of GNU libc. Reported by Paul Eggert.
2083 * tests/du/long-sloop: Create file at end of symlink chain.
2085 * tests/misc/test: New file, with a test for one of the
2086 bugs fixed by yesterday's test.c changes.
2087 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add test.
2089 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2091 * tests/du/long-sloop: New file. Test for today's fts.c bug fix.
2092 That bug could make du -L, chgrp -L, or chown -L fail to diagnose
2093 a very long sequence of symbolic links (not necessarily a loop).
2094 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-sloop.
2096 2006-01-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2098 * src/test.c (test_syntax_error): Append a newline. All callers
2099 changed, except for the ones that didn't already append a newline.
2100 Bug reported by Eric Blake.
2102 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2104 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC): Now that verify_true is no longer
2105 void, cast its result to void, to avoid gcc's warning that
2106 ``left-hand operand of comma expression has no effect''.
2107 (DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE, X2REALLOC): Likewise.
2109 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2111 * tests/chmod/no-x: Add a test for today's fts.c fix.
2113 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change)
2115 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Use DTTOIF only if it's defined.
2116 This is necessary for Dragonfly. Patch by Joerg Sonnenberger.
2118 2006-01-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2120 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE):
2121 Use verify_true instead of verify_expr, to sync with gnulib.
2123 2006-01-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2125 * src/date.c (usage): Adjust the formatting of the entries for
2126 %::z and %:::z (separate with two spaces, not one) so that help2man
2127 formats them properly. Reported by Philip Rowlands.
2129 2006-01-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2131 * configure.ac (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Add.
2133 2006-01-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2135 * Makefile.maint (copyright-check): Use date +%Y in place of
2136 hard-coded 2005.
2138 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove `static' attribute on local `status'.
2139 First off, the attribute should have been `volatile' (not static)
2140 to avoid longjmp-related risk of clobber. Secondly, now there is
2141 no longer any risk of a local variable being clobbered, so there's
2142 no need for any attribute at all.
2144 2006-01-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2146 * src/remove.c: Give a few functions the inline attribute.
2147 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use gotos to avoid some duplication.
2148 (AD_push): Rewrite an assertion so that the entire computation
2149 goes away when assertions are turned off.
2151 * src/tail.c (ENOSYS) [!defined ENOSYS]: Don't define here.
2152 It's already defined in "system.h".
2153 * Makefile.maint: Add a FIXME comment.
2155 2006-01-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2157 * ChangeLog: Remove entries from 2005-10-22 and earlier.
2158 * ChangeLog-2005: New file, for entries up to version 5.92.
2160 2006-01-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2162 * tests/du/no-x: Also allow a slightly different diagnostic -- the
2163 one you get when using openat-enabled fts.c and du (coming soon).
2164 * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise.
2165 * tests/chgrp/no-x: Likewise.
2167 * src/system.h (O_DIRECTORY) [!defined O_DIRECTORY]: Define.
2169 2006-01-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2171 * src/chown-core.c (RC_do_ordinary_chown): New enum value.
2172 (restricted_chown): Return it, if the file cannot be accessed due
2173 to EPERM, or if no uid or gid are required, or if the file is
2174 neither a directory nor a regular file. Rewrite to avoid gotos.
2175 (change_file_owner): Handle RC_do_ordinary_chown case.
2176 Rewrite to avoid gotos.
2177 * tests/chgrp/basic: Make sure we can change the group of
2178 inaccessible files.
2180 * src/date.c (usage): Explain %g, %G, and %V a bit better.
2182 2006-01-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2184 * src/copy.c (set_owner): Correct a comment.
2186 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Change warning to say that --retry
2187 is useful `mainly' (not `only') when following by name.
2188 Reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/273781
2190 2006-01-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2192 * NEWS: Document that mkfifo and mknod -m no longer set special bits.
2193 * src/copy.c: Include lchmod.h.
2194 (copy_internal): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
2195 * src/cp.c: Include lchmod.h.
2196 (re_protect, make_dir_parents_private): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
2197 * src/mkdir.c: Include lchmod.h.
2198 (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
2199 (main): Use lchmod rather than chmod. Don't use lchmod unless the
2200 new mode contains bits outside the 777 range.
2201 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
2202 (main): If -m is given, don't invoke chmod; use umask 0 instead.
2203 Report an error if -m asks for bits outside the 777 range.
2204 * src/mknod.c (usage, main): Likewise.
2206 * src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: Undo 2005-12-19 changes.
2208 2005-12-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2210 * Makefile.maint (sc_obsolete_symbols): Prohibit use of O_NDELAY.
2211 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): New rule.
2212 (syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list.
2213 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: New empty file.
2214 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
2216 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Define in terms of $(srcdir).
2218 * cp.c, df.c, link.c, mknod.c, nice.c, sleep.c, unlink.c:
2219 Don't include <assert.h>; it wasn't used.
2221 2005-12-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2223 * src/chown-core.c (restricted_chown):
2224 Don't try O_WRONLY unless O_RDONLY failed wth EACCES.
2225 * src/remove.c (fd_to_subdirp): Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTY
2226 | O_NOFOLLOW too, for consistency with other dir-openers.
2227 Use POSIX-preferred O_NONBLOCK rather than O_NDELAY.
2228 (is_empty_dir): Likewise.
2229 * src/shred.c (wipename): Likewise. Don't bother trying to open
2230 dir for writing, since POSIX prohibits it.
2232 2005-12-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2234 * tests/help-version: Redirect stderr to /dev/full, to suppress
2235 write error diagnostic.
2237 2005-12-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2239 * src/mkdir.c, src/mknod.c, src/mkfifo.c (main)
2240 Avoid a minor race condition when `-m MODE' is specified, by using
2241 open, fchown, and close rather than just chown. To do that reliably --
2242 even with an overly restrictive umask -- ensure that each mkdir,
2243 mknod and mkfifo call uses a mode including at least owner-read access.
2244 * src/mknod.c (main): When `-m MODE' is specified, exit nonzero if
2245 the subsequent chown (or equivalent open,fchown,close) fails.
2246 * tests/misc/mknod: New tests.
2247 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mknod.
2249 2005-12-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2251 * src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Open with O_NDELAY, so we don't hang,
2252 e.g., on a named pipe.
2253 (OPEN_NO_FOLLOW_SYMLINK): Remove definition. Use O_NOFOLLOW in
2254 place of all uses, since it is guaranteed (system.h) to be defined.
2256 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>
2258 Add POSIX ACL support
2259 * src/ls.c: Switch back from HAVE_ACL to USE_ACL: The acl() syscall
2260 is no requirement for ACL support; particularly, it does not exist
2261 on systems that have POSIX ACLs.
2262 * src/copy.h (cp_option_init) [umask_kill]: Remove member.
2263 * src/cp.c (umask_kill): With default acls, the umask is not to be
2264 applied. Remove umask_kill, don't change the process umask, and let
2265 the kernel apply the umask where appropriate.
2266 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Fix logic for POSIX ACLs.
2267 * src/copy.c (get_dest_mode): Remove; it is obsolete after removing
2268 umask_kill.
2269 (copy_reg, copy_internal): Use copy_acl and set_acl
2270 instead of fchown/chown. Fix the logic for POSIX ACLs.
2271 (chown_succeded): Remove; we now always copy acls and
2272 preserve S_ISUID, S_ISGID, and S_ISVTX when needed, no matter if we
2273 did a chown before or not.
2274 * src/mv.c, src/install.c (cp_option_init): Don't set umask_kill member.
2275 * src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, vdir_LDADD, cp_LDADD,
2276 mv_LDADD, ginstall_LDADD): On systems with an ACL library, arrange
2277 to link with it via $(LIB_ACL), for the utilities that need it.
2279 2005-12-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2281 * src/remove.c (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__REQUIRE): Remove.
2282 (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__ALLOW_FAILURE): Likewise.
2283 (fd_to_subdirp): Remove openat_cwd_restore_allow_failure arg; its
2284 value is now signified by whether cwd_errno is null.
2285 (fd_to_subdirp, remove_dir, rm_1); Change cwd failure indicator from
2286 pointer-to-bool to pointer-to-errno-value. All callers changed.
2287 (rm_1): Don't bother setting a local cwd failure flag and then
2288 ORing it into the caller's. Just set the caller's.
2289 (rm): Use cwd failure errno value to print a slightly-better
2290 diagnostic.
2292 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2294 * src/stat.c (print_it): Properly handle a backslash at the
2295 end of a --printf format string. Reported by Paul Eggert.
2296 * tests/misc/stat-printf (end-bs): Add a test for the above.
2298 2005-12-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2300 * tests/acl: Port to pre-POSIX shells like Solaris 8 /bin/sh.
2301 Don't assume /etc/passwd contains user names; use 'id' instead.
2303 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2305 stat: revert behavior of --format=FMT (-c)
2306 stat: add new option: --printf=FMT
2307 * NEWS: Mention this.
2308 * src/stat.c (isodigit, octtobin, hextobin): Define.
2309 (PRINTF_OPTION): Define.
2310 (interpret_backslash_escapes, trailing_delim): New globals.
2311 (usage): Document them. Alphabetize on long option names.
2312 (print_esc_char): New function.
2313 (print_it): Rewrite, in order to handle backslash escapes.
2314 (main): Handle new option. Set globals for --format, too.
2316 * tests/misc/stat-printf: Test --printf and --format.
2317 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-printf.
2319 2005-12-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2321 * NEWS: sort now reports incompatible options.
2322 * src/sort.c (incompatible_options, check_ordering_compatibility):
2323 New functions.
2324 (main): Use them. Don't bother with a usage message for
2325 "sort -c a b", for consistency with other error diagnostics.
2326 * tests/sort/Test.pm (incompat1, incompat2, incompat3, incompat4):
2327 New tests.
2329 * src/cat.c (main): Undo previous change. close_stdout already
2330 does the check, so the previous change wasn't necessary.
2332 2005-12-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2334 * src/cat.c (main): Check for close (STDOUT_FILENO) failure.
2336 2005-12-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2338 Install a more-conservative approach for sort -R. It's the
2339 same basic idea as the existing code, except it uses the full ISAAC
2340 approach (called the "more kosher" approach in the existing comments).
2341 This makes "sort -R" quite a bit slower (about a factor of 2 on my
2342 little tests involving 10000 lines on a 2.4 GHz P4), but I think it's
2343 better to be conservative here at first, and review any performance
2344 improvements carefully.
2345 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add src/rand-isaac.c.
2346 * src/rand-isaac.h: Remove. All uses now simply include rand-isaac.c.
2347 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Remove rand-isaac.h.
2348 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): Remove.
2349 (EXTRA_DIST): Add rand-isaac.c.
2350 * src/rand-isaac.c: Revert to what used to be in shred.c, without
2351 changing it to allow for varying numbers of words in the state.
2352 Alter so that we include rand-isaac.c directly rather than
2353 compiling it and linking to it. Don't include config.h or
2354 system.h; that's the includer's responsibility.
2355 Omit functions that are specific to shred.
2356 (ISAAC_LOG, ISAAC_WORDS, ISAAC_BYTES, struct isaac_state, ind):
2357 (isaac_step, struct irand_state):
2358 Resurrect these, with the same defns that used to be in shred.c.
2359 (ISAAC_SIZE, isaac_new, isaac_copy): Remove.
2360 (isaac_refill, isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, irand_init, irand32):
2361 static again.
2362 (struct isaac_state, isaac_refill, isaac_mix, isaac_init):
2363 (isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, isaac_seed_finish, isaac_seed):
2364 (irand_init, irand32, irand_mod):
2365 Number of words is constant again.
2366 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Move to shred.c.
2367 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.c rather than rand-isaac.h.
2368 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
2369 * src/shred.c (fillrand, dopass, main): Undo previous change.
2370 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Moved back here,
2371 from rand-isaac.c.
2372 * src/sort.c: Don't include md5.h; it wasn't needed.
2373 (struct keyfield): Rename random_hash to random, for consistency
2374 with the other member names. All uses changed.
2375 (usage): Tweak wording to mention STRING for --seed option.
2376 (short_options): Rorder for consistency with other programs.
2377 (rand_state): Now a struct, not a pointer to one. All uses changed.
2378 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): Remove.
2379 (get_hash): Remove comments around resbuf size, since we can assume C89.
2380 Use a "more-kosher" (but slower) approach of invoking isaac_refill.
2381 (keycompare): Adjust to the new get_hash.
2382 Add a FIXME.
2383 (badfieldspec): Omit recently-introduced comment; it isn't needed.
2384 (main): Don't set need_random simply because gkey has it set; that
2385 doesn't necessarily mean we'll need random numbers.
2386 Redo seeding to match new get_hash approach.
2388 2005-12-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2390 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add rand-isaac.h.
2392 Avoid shred segfault on 64-bit systems.
2393 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_refill): Don't try to negate a
2394 local of type uint32_t. Make the local an `int' instead.
2396 * NEWS: Mention sort's new options.
2398 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_mix): Declare to be static.
2399 Mark all other functions as `extern' so the tight-scope
2400 part of `make distcheck' passes once again.
2401 * src/rand-isaac.h (isaac_mix): Remove declaration.
2403 * src/sort.c (get_hash): Change position of `*' in parameter
2404 type to conform with convention.
2405 (main): Split a long line so it fits in 80 columns.
2406 (keycompare): Remove stray SPACE before TAB that was
2407 causing `make distcheck' to fail.
2409 * src/shred.c: Don't include gethrxtime.h. No longer needed.
2411 * tests/misc/sort-rand: New file: basic tests for the new options.
2412 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sort-rand.
2414 2005-12-10 Frederik Eaton <frederik@ofb.net>
2416 * src/Makefile.am (sort_LDADD): Add $(LIB_GETHRXTIME).
2417 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): New macros, so we compile rand-isaac.c.
2418 * src/rand-isaac.c: New file, containing ISAAC code that was in shred.c.
2419 Make state size runtime-configurable.
2420 (isaac_new, isaac_copy): New functions.
2421 * src/rand-isaac.h: New file.
2422 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.h. Move ISAAC code to rand-isaac.c.
2423 (fillrand, main): Adjust to the fact that the state size is now
2424 runtime-configurable.
2425 * src/sort.c (short_options, long_options, WORDS, keycompare, main):
2426 (usage): Add options --random-sort and --seed to implement a random
2427 shuffle.
2428 Include md5.h and rand-isaac.h.
2429 (get_hash): New function.
2430 (rand_state): New var.
2431 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): New macros.
2433 2005-12-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2435 * tests/dd/misc: Add test for dd iflags=noatime.
2437 2005-12-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2439 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention white space vs -b and -t options.
2440 From The Wanderer.
2442 2005-12-09 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2444 * src/test.c (main): Fix misleading comment.
2446 2005-12-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2448 * NEWS: Mention dd's new noatime flag.
2449 * src/system.h (O_NOATIME): Define to 0 if not already defined.
2450 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): Add support for noatime flag.
2452 2005-12-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2454 Distribute the cvsu script, used only by `make syntax-check'.
2455 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/cvsu.
2456 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use build-aux/cvsu, now that we
2457 distribute a copy of this script.
2458 * .x-sc_unmarked_diagnostics: Add build-aux/cvsu.
2460 * tests/mv/acl: exit-77 before the trap, not after, if we fail
2461 to create a temporary directory on another partition.
2462 From Andreas Gruenbacher.
2464 2005-12-06 Tomas Pospisek <tpo@sourcepole.ch> (tiny change)
2466 * man/basename.x: Cross-reference to dirname and readlink.
2467 * man/dirname.x: Cross-reference to basename and readlink.
2469 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher
2471 * src/copy.c [!HAVE_FCHOWN]: Define fchown(...) to -1.
2472 (set_owner, preserve_author): New functions, factored out of copy_reg.
2473 (copy_reg): Use them.
2474 (copy_internal): Use them here, too.
2476 2005-12-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2478 * src/sleep.c (usage): Say what happens with two or more arguments.
2479 Suggested by Justin Pryzby.
2481 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Move decl of `upsecs' into scope
2482 where it's used.
2484 2005-12-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2486 * src/rm.c (long_opts): Change the name of each undocumented, for-
2487 testing-only option to start with `-', so that it cannot render
2488 ambiguous any prefix it happens to share with some other option name.
2489 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
2490 * src/head.c (long_options): Likewise.
2491 * src/tail.c (long_options): Likewise.
2493 * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: Update uses of undocumented, for-
2494 testing-only --presume* options to start with `---'.
2495 * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Likewise.
2496 * tests/rm/dir-no-w: Likewise.
2497 * tests/rm/isatty: Likewise.
2499 2005-11-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2501 * Makefile.maint: Add a comment about cvsu.
2503 2005-11-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2505 * NEWS: df updates for "none", "proc", inaccessible file systems.
2506 * src/df.c (show_point): Ignore inaccessible file systems.
2507 (usage): -a includes dummy file systems, not size-0 file systems.
2509 * src/od.c (unsigned_long_long_int): Renamed from ulonglong_t,
2510 to avoid collision with POSIX name space. All uses changed.
2512 2005-11-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2514 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add acl to the list.
2515 * tests/acl: Add `$0: ' prefix to diagnostics.
2517 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/buffer-lcm.c to the list.
2519 2005-11-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2521 * src/copy.c: Improve performance a bit by optimizing away
2522 unnecessary system calls and going to a block size of at least
2523 8192 (on normal hosts, anyway). This improved performance 5% on my
2524 Debian stable host (2.4.27 kernel, x86, copying from root
2525 ext3 file system to itself).
2526 Include "buffer-lcm.h".
2527 (copy_reg): Omit last argument. All callers changed.
2528 Use xmalloc to allocate rather than trusting alloca
2529 (which is unwise with large block sizes).
2530 Declare locals more locally, if possible.
2531 Use uintptr_t words instead of int words, for a bit more speed
2532 when looking for null blocks on 64-bit hosts.
2533 Optimize away reads of zero bytes on regular files.
2534 In the typical case, insist on 8 KiB buffers, at least.
2535 Avoid unnecessary extra call to fstat when checking for sparse files.
2536 Avoid now-unnecessary cast to off_t, and "0L".
2537 Avoid unnecessary test of *new_dst when checking for same owner
2538 and group.
2540 2005-11-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2542 * src/remove.c (rm): Don't assume C99 for-loop syntax.
2544 2005-11-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2546 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Remove debugging cruft.
2548 * tests/rm/unread2 (rm): Change expected diagnostic,
2549 `cannot open directory' to `cannot remove', to align with
2550 new version of rm.
2551 * tests/rm/rm2: Ensure that rm now continues removing entries
2552 even after certain types of failure.
2554 * src/remove.c: Rewrite. Now, this module is reentrant on systems
2555 that provide openat (Solaris), and on systems like Linux+procfs
2556 where our openat emulation code is reentrant. This also fixes a
2557 few low-probability leaks and eliminates some code that could,
2558 in very unusual circumstances, cause rm() (via a callee) to exit.
2559 * NEWS: Mention this.
2561 * configure.ac: Put copyright dates all on one line so the
2562 emacs function that updates them works properly.
2564 2005-11-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2566 * configure.ac (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Add. Needed for CVS Automake.
2567 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
2568 (AC_PROG_CC_STDC): Use this instead of AC_PROG_CC, so that
2569 we get a standard-conforming compiler. This relies on the new
2570 m4/c.m4 file. Note that it's a bit tricky, since c.m4 doesn't
2571 define AC_PROG_CC_STDC; we are relying on Autoconf 2.59 internals.
2572 m4/c.m4 can go away with Autoconf 2.60 comes out.
2574 2005-11-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2576 * src/remove.c (AD_mark_helper): Make a `char *' parameter `const'.
2577 (AD_mark_current_as_unremovable): Likewise, but for a local.
2578 (rm_1): Likewise.
2580 * tests/mv/acl: Let traps handle removing temporary directories.
2582 Expect acl-related tests to fail, until the corresponding
2583 patches are committed.
2584 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Add acl.
2585 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Likewise.
2587 ACL tests, from Andreas Gruenbacher.
2588 * tests/acl, tests/mv/acl, tests/cp/acl: New files.
2589 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acl.
2590 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acl.
2592 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Correct wording in comment.
2594 2005-11-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2596 * NEWS: Improve quality of ln's diagnostics.
2597 * src/ln.c (do_link, usage): Likewise.
2598 (do_link): Don't use alloca on a buffer of unbounded size.
2600 2005-11-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2602 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Accommodate HPUX. It appears to fail
2603 with EACCES rather than EPERM. Reported by Peter O'Gorman here:
2604 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/5766
2605 This also affects AIX 4.3.3, according to Ralf Wildenhues, in
2606 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html
2608 2005-11-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2610 * NEWS (sort): Mention consequences of today's mkstemp-safer.c fix.
2612 2005-11-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2614 * announce-gen: Accept new option, --gpg-key-id=ID and
2615 emit a blurb telling how to use the .sig files.
2616 * Makefile.cfg (gpg_key_ID): Define.
2617 * Makefile.maint (announcement): Use new option and key.
2619 Require that most .c files include <config.h>.
2620 * Makefile.maint (sc_require_config_h): New rule.
2621 (syntax-check-rules): Add it.
2622 * .x-sc_require_config_h: New file listing exceptions to the
2623 above rule. Some are legit, others are simply grandfathered in.
2624 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_require_config_h here, too.
2626 2005-11-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2628 * src/checksum.h, src/md5.c, src/sha1sum.c: Remove now-unused files.
2630 2005-11-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2632 * NEWS: Mention `readlink -f' bug fix in 5.3.0 news.
2633 Mention new readlink options in 5.3.0's `New features' section.
2634 Spotted by Thomas Hood.
2636 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2638 * NEWS: Merge in changes from b5_9x branch.
2640 2005-11-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2642 * NEWS: ls now defaults to --time-style='locale', which in turn acts
2643 like --time-style='posix-long-iso' if the locale settings are messed up.
2644 * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Implement this.
2646 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2648 * tests/du/2g: s/expensive/very expensive/ in a comment.
2649 From Paul Townsend.
2651 2005-10-17 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2653 * src/ls.c (usage): Fix descriptions of --sort, --time.
2654 Reported by Vitaly A. Ostanin.
2656 2005-11-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2658 * src/ln.c: Include filenamecat.c.
2659 (FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT): Remove.
2660 (do_link): Remove last arg DEST_IS_DIR. All callers changed.
2661 (main): Use file_name_concat, base_name, and strip_trailing_slashes
2662 instead of FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT. This simplifies the code, and avoids
2663 the use of alloca.
2665 2005-11-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2667 * src/du.c (process_file): Don't overflow for files of size >= 2^31
2668 on systems with stat.st_blocks of a signed 32-bit type.
2669 This bug causes trouble on some AIX 5.1 systems.
2670 Report and trivial patch from Paul Townsend:
2671 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2005-11/msg00033.html>
2672 * NEWS: Mention this.
2674 * tests/du/2g: New (very-expensive) test for the above-fixed bug.
2675 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it here.
2676 * tests/very-expensive: New file.
2677 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it here.
2678 * tests/cp/perm: Mark this test as `very-expensive', too.
2680 2005-11-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2682 * NEWS: Mention that rm -d and maybe ln -d are scheduled for
2683 removal in 2006.
2684 * src/remove.h (struct rm_options): Remove unlink_dirs. All uses
2685 removed.
2686 * src/rm.c (usage): Don't mention rm -d.
2688 2005-11-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2690 * tests/dd/skip-seek: Fix typo in comment: s/fileutils/coreutils.
2691 From Andreas Schwab.
2693 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Redirect stderr to /dev/null so the
2694 `M+N records in/out' lines don't pollute `make check' output.
2696 * tests/dd/skip-seek (sk-seek4): New test, to exercise the bug
2697 fixed on 2005-10-31. This test uses the new, IN_PIPE specifier.
2698 * tests/Coreutils.pm: Accept a new type of input specifier: IN_PIPE,
2699 to indicate that the input file should be piped into the command
2700 under test (via `cat FILE | $prog ...').
2702 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Emit a better diagnostic when rm
2703 (without -r) fails to remove a directory on a non-Linux system.
2704 This change affects only newer Solaris systems (with priv_*
2705 functions like priv_allocset). Reported by Keith Thompson.
2707 * tests/rm/dir-nonrecur: New file/test for the above fix.
2708 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir-nonrecur.
2710 2005-11-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2712 * NEWS: "tail -c 2 FILE" and "touch 0101000000" now operate as
2713 POSIX 1002.1-2001 requires.
2714 * src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Implement this.
2715 Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre.
2716 * src/touch.c (main): Pass PDS_PRE_2000 to posixtime.
2717 * tests/tail/Test.pm (c-2, c-2-minus, c2, c2-minus): New tests.
2718 (test_vector): Add special cases for _POSIX2_VERSION, and
2719 regularize the old ones a bit.
2720 * tests/touch/obsolescent: Add y2000 test.
2722 2005-10-31 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2724 * src/dd.c (skip): Fix off-by-one error reported by
2725 Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
2727 2005-10-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2729 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Require that the test be run as non-root.
2730 Problem and trivial fix reported by Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
2732 2005-10-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2734 * src/ln.c (FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT): Omit unnecessary slashes in the
2735 boundary between DEST and SOURCE in the result.
2737 2005-10-26 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
2739 * src/md5sum.c (main) [!O_BINARY]: Changed default read mode
2740 back to text, to sync with documentation and for backwards
2741 compatibility.
2743 2005-10-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2745 * tests/dircolors/simple (other-wr): Add an explicit test for
2746 the dircolors bug (NULL-dereference) fixed yesterday.
2748 2005-10-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2750 * src/tac.c (tac_file): When determining whether a file is seekable,
2751 also test whether it is a tty. Using only the lseek-based test would
2752 give a false positive on Solaris. Reported by Peter Fales.
2754 2005-10-24 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
2756 * tests/install/d-slashdot: New test, for "install -d" failure.
2757 * tests/install/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add d-slashdot.
2758 * tests/mkdir/p-slashdot: New test, for "mkdir -p" failure.
2759 * tests/mkdir/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add p-slashdot.
2761 2005-10-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2763 * src/dircolors.c (ls_codes): Add missing comma.
2764 Anonymous report and patch from
2765 http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=14849
2767 * src/dircolors.c: Add compile-time assertion that the slack_codes
2768 and ls_codes arrays have the same number of elements. This would
2769 have prevented the above-fixed bug.
2771 * src/expand.c (parse_tab_stops): Add a comment to make this function
2772 identical to the one in unexpand.c.
2773 * src/unexpand.c (parse_tab_stops): Adjust syntax to make this function
2774 identical to the one in expand.c.
2776 * src/expand.c (next_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin.
2778 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2780 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check, main): Use ptr_align rather than
2781 a dangerous pointer-value-to-`unsigned' cast.
2782 * NEWS: mention the new sha* programs.
2783 * AUTHORS: Add new sha* programs.
2785 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>
2787 Add new programs: sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum, sha512sum.
2788 * README: Add their names to the list.
2789 * src/md5sum.c: Provide framework for computing sha-2 hashes.
2790 * src/Makefile.am (sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum, sha512sum):
2791 Rules for compiling sha-2 utilities
2792 (noinst_HEADERS): Remove checksum.h.
2793 * man/sha512sum.x, man/sha384sum.x, man/sha256sum.x, man/sha224sum.x:
2794 New files.
2795 * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add the corresponding .1 names.
2796 (sha224sum.1, sha256sum.1, sha384sum.1, sha512sum.1): New dependencies.
2797 * tests/misc/sha224sum, tests/misc/sha256sum: New files.
2798 * tests/misc/sha384sum, tests/misc/sha512sum: New files.
2799 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add new sha224sum, sha256sum,
2800 sha384sum, sha512sum test scripts here rather that each in its
2801 own directory.
2803 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>
2805 * tests/sha1sum/basic-1 (million-a): Add the "million a's" test (one
2806 of the FIPS test vectors).
2808 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2810 * configure.ac: Use 6.0-cvs as the version string.
2811 * NEWS: Adjust accordingly.
