1 2006-10-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3 * .gitignore: Remove some references to files in subdirectories.
4 * build-aux/.gitignore, doc/.gitignore, lib/.gitignore: New files.
5 * m4/.gitignore, po/.gitignore, src/.gitignore: Likewise.
7 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Add a comment saying why we prefer
10 Enable an fts optimization (call lstat only for directories,
11 on some file system types) also with the --preserve-root option
13 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Compare fts_statp-based
14 dev/ino against root dev/ino only for directories.
15 (chown_files): Don't let the root_dev_ino setting influence whether
16 we use FTS_NOSTAT: fts always sets *fts_statp for a directory.
18 2006-10-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
20 * src/od.c (usage): Change description of default to use "-w16",
21 not the now-invalid "-w 16" syntax. From Dan Jacobson.
23 2006-10-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
25 * bootstrap: Add names to each .gitignore file (if it exists)
26 as well as to .cvsignore.
28 * Makefile.maint (po-check): This rule didn't detect the new use
29 of "gettext" (as opposed to the use of "_" everywhere else) in
30 lib/xstrtol.h. Adjust the grep regexp so that now it does.
32 2006-10-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
34 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Rewrite slightly to avoid duplicate code
35 when opening dst_name.
36 (copy_reg, copy_internal): Use (SYSCALL != 0) rather than plain
37 (SYSCALL) to test for failure in a system call.
39 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use mknod rather than mkfifo to copy
40 a fifo. This preserves the special mode bits on Solaris 10, which
41 is compatible with what Solaris 10 cp -R does.
43 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove redundant and confusing local
46 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't pass mkdir a mode greater than
47 7777. This matches historical 'cp' behavior and avoids some
48 (though not all) implementation-defined behavior of mkdir.
49 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Likewise.
50 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't pass 'open' a mode greater
51 than 777. This is required by POSIX. It doesn't make any difference
52 in actual behavior on any host that I know of.
54 2006-10-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
56 * src/dd.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
57 "fdatasync" option string from its description, so help2man formats
58 the derived man page properly. Reported by Samuel Thibault
59 in <http://bugs.debian.org/393649>.
61 2006-10-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
63 * .x-sc_trailing_blank: Remove names of files that are no longer
66 2006-10-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
68 * src/groups.sh (version): Reword message to match the other programs.
69 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
71 2006-10-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
73 * Makefile.maint (headers_with_interesting_macro_defs): Define.
74 (.re-defmac, sc_always_defined_macros): New rules.
76 * src/system.h (EXIT_FAILURE, EXIT_SUCCESS): Remove definitions.
77 Instead, include "exit.h". This hereby retires the work-around for
78 "Sony NEWS-OS Release 4.0C"'s bug due to "#define EXIT_FAILURE 0".
80 * src/cksum.c (uint_fast32_t): Don't define.
81 Instead, include <stdint.h>.
83 * src/pinky.c (S_IWGRP): Don't define.
84 It's already defined by "stat-macros.h" (included via system.h).
86 * Makefile.cfg: Remove cruft that's now handled via bootstrap.
87 * Makefile.maint: Likewise, remove these targets/rules/variables:
88 (local_updates, update, cvs-update, wget_files, get-targets): Remove.
89 (cvs_files, wget-update, automake_repo): Likewise.
90 Move the comment about cvsu to build-aux/vc-list-files,
91 where cvsu is actually used.
93 * Makefile.maint (cvs-update): Use $(CVS), not "cvs".
95 Work also when the working directory (with e.g. coreutils sources)
96 is version controlled with git, rather than CVS.
97 * bootstrap (CVS_only_file): Test for the existence of README-cvs,
99 In messages and comments, say e.g., "checked-out sources",
100 rather than "CVS sources".
101 (version_controlled_file): New function. Work for git as well as
102 for CVS. Don't use grep's -q option.
103 (slurp): Call it here, in place of CVS-specific code.
105 * NEWS: cp -r --backup dir1 dir2, would rename an existing dir1/dir2
107 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Although we do create a backup of each
108 destination directory when in move mode, don't do that when copying.
109 Reported by Peter Breitenlohner, in
110 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/8616>.
111 * tests/cp/backup-dir: New file. Test for the above.
112 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add backup-dir.
114 2006-10-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
116 More chown/chgrp dereferencing-related fixes.
117 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Don't use fts_statp if
118 we're dereferencing symlinks.
119 Reverse conjuncts, so that we use dereference file_stats
120 (aka ent->fts_statp) only *after* we've confirmed that
121 chopt->affect_symlink_referent is true. Otherwise, we might
122 use ent->fts_statp uninitialized.
123 Don't turn on FTS_NOSTAT when dereferencing symlinks.
124 * tests/chown/deref: Update the expected diagnostic, now that
125 this test case (trying to use "chown --dereference ..." on a
126 dangling symlink) takes a different code path.
128 2006-10-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
130 Sync from Bison, as follows:
132 2006-10-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
134 Fix problems with translating English-language diagnostics.
135 * bootstrap: Fix bug introduced in recent bootstrap changes, with
136 respect to bison-runtime pot generation. The YY_ stuff
137 wasn't being captured.
139 2006-10-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
141 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Use fstatat, not stat,
142 now that we're using fts_open with FTS_CWDFD.
143 * tests/chgrp/posix-H: Add --preserve-root to an invocation of
144 chgrp, to exercise the above fix.
145 * NEWS: Mention the above.
147 * src/du-tests: Clean up a little, though it's still not portable.
149 * .vg-suppressions: Add 3 more for debian unstable.
151 * tests/ls/Test.pm: Remove long-unused file.
152 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add bootstrap.conf.
153 Suggestions from Bruno Haible.
155 2006-10-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
157 * Makefile.am (THANKS-to-translators): Add missing $(srcdir).
158 (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add .kludge-stamp.
159 * man/Makefile.am (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Typo $(dist_man_MANS)
160 instead of $(man_MANS).
162 2006-10-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
164 * configure.ac: Avoid compiler warnings about default return
165 type in function definitions and unused variables in tests.
166 * src/who.c (print_user) [HAVE_UT_HOST]: hostlen is only needed
169 2006-10-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
171 * configure.ac: Reflect s/gl_MACROS/coreutils_MACROS/ renaming.
172 Call gl_INIT directly, rather than through the above.
174 2006-10-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
176 * bootstrap (symlink_to_gnulib): Fix bug: the dot_dots shell
177 variable was sometimes used without being initialized. This
178 messed up the installation of the INSTALL file in some cases.
180 2006-10-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
182 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct description of -s, --size.
183 It works even without -l. Suggestion from Karl Berry.
185 2006-10-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
187 * src/ls.c (quote_name): Use initializer rather than memset to
188 initialize an object to zero. This is easier to read and is less
189 likely to introduce a runtime error due to a mixup. It causes
190 gcc -W to issue a warning, but you can work around this by
191 appending -Wno-missing-field-initializers.
192 * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Likewise.
193 * src/shred.c (main): Likewise.
194 * src/stty.c (main): Likewise.
195 * src/tr.c (card_of_complement): Likewise.
196 * src/wc.c (wc): Likewise.
198 2006-10-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
200 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention again that sort fields are origin 1.
202 * NEWS: Fix typo: iso-8602 -> iso-8601. Problem reported by
205 * bootstrap (usage, main program, symlink_to_gnulib): Add option
206 --copy. Inspired by a suggestion from Bruno Haible.
208 2006-10-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
210 Avoid a compiler warning.
211 * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Initialize variable of type
212 mbstate_t via memset, rather than via '{0}'. Patch from Bruno Haible.
214 2006-10-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
216 Fix bug reported today by Mike Frysinger: mkdir -pv is logging the
217 wrong file name in some cases. Lars Wendler reported a bug in
219 * src/install.c (make_ancestor): New arg COMPONENT.
220 * src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Likewise.
221 * tests/install/basic-1: Check for install -Dv bug.
222 * tests/mkdir/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add p-v.
223 * tests/mkdir/p-v: New file, to test this bug.
225 2006-10-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
227 * src/chgrp.c: Don't include lchown.h; no longer needed.
228 * src/chown.c: Likewise.
230 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use a dynamic test to decide whether the
231 current file system has useful d_type info.
233 * src/dd.c (flags): noatime and nofollow now depend on
234 HAVE_WORKING_O_NOATIME and HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW, too.
235 (usage): Output info about noatime and nofollow only if
236 they are known to work.
237 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Inspect HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW rather
238 than O_NOFOLLOW, when testing whether it's possible to avoid a
239 race condition reliably.
241 2006-10-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
243 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets.
245 * tests/install/basic-1: Skip the latter part of this test if the
246 just-built dd binary is not readable. Otherwise, this test would fail
247 when binaries were created as root. Reported by Bauke Jan Douma in
248 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/8433>.
250 2006-10-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
252 * src/system.h (ST_BLKSIZE): Ceiling at SIZE_MAX / 8 + 1, not at 4
253 MiB, since XFS hosts can legitimately have large values of
254 st_blksize. Problem reported by Tony Ernst in
255 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17903>.
257 2006-10-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
259 * src/remove.c (nonexistent_file_errno): Remove ENAMETOOLONG.
260 Paul Eggert pointed out that the specified file may exist,
261 in spite of such an errno value.
262 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove ignore-name-too-long.
263 * tests/rm/ignore-name-too-long: Remove file.
264 * NEWS: Update here, too.
266 2006-10-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
268 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Report failure also if rm is terminated by
271 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Convert two c99'isms -- one in remove.c
272 and one in shred.c -- that were added before coreutils-6.3.
273 Reported by Michael Deutschmann.
275 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets.
277 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): With -f, exit successfully in spite
278 of a missing file under some very unusual conditions (with errno
279 being any of ENOENT, ENOTDIR, ENAMETOOLONG).
281 With --force (-f), rm no longer fails for ENOTDIR.
282 * src/remove.c (ignorable_missing): New function.
283 Use it everywhere, rather than open-coding the test.
284 Andreas Schwab reported the ENOTDIR problem.
285 (ignorable_missing): Similarly, don't fail for ENAMETOOLONG.
287 * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
288 * tests/rm/ignorable: New file. Test for the ENOTDIR case.
289 * tests/rm/ignore-name-too-long: New file. Test for ENAMETOOLONG.
290 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the new file names.
292 * bootstrap: Undo last change to this file, since now gnulib-tool
293 sticks with the automake default in generating dependencies.
295 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.4-cvs.
296 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.4 and add "-cvs" suffix.
298 2006-09-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
301 * NEWS: Record the 6.3 release date.
302 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
304 * NEWS: Mention Paul's Solaris 8 vs. 10 work-around.
306 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update offsets.
308 2006-09-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
310 * tests/rm/readdir-bug: Don't use $(...) in a shell script,
311 as it doesn't work with Solaris /bin/sh.
313 2006-09-29 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
315 * NEWS: Mention Paul's fix (to gnulib's canon-host.c) for
318 * tests/seq/basic [neg-2, eq-wid-2]: Comment out tests that
319 use .1 as the increment. Actual output varies too much.
320 [eq-wid-3]: New, commented out test.
322 * src/shuf.c (read_input): Fix an off-by-one error that
323 would cause an infloop for piped input of 8KB or more.
324 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
325 * tests/misc/shuf: Test for the above fix.
327 Since any system may be affected by the Darwin readdir bug,
328 perform the extra rewinddir unconditionally. The performance
329 impact of rewinding a directory is negligible.
330 * src/remove.c (NEED_REWIND): Define to use
331 CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD unconditionally.
333 * tests/seq/basic: Use .11 as the upper bound, in case the ".1"
334 increment translates to a slightly larger value.
335 This corrects a test failure on FreeBSD 6.1 reported by Nelson Beebe.
336 The final expected value wasn't being printed.
338 Work around a readdir bug in Darwin 7.9.0 (MacOS X 10.3.9) on HFS+
339 and NFS, whereby rm would not remove all files in a directory.
340 * src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Reduce to 10.
341 (NEED_REWIND): New macro, so that we incur the cost of the work-around
342 rewinddir only on afflicted systems.
343 * NEWS: Clarify and correct.
344 * tests/rm/readdir-bug: New file. Test for the above fix.
345 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
346 Prompted by testing and analysis from Bruno Haible:
347 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-09/msg00326.html
349 2006-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
351 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Unset BASH_ENV, CDPATH, and ENV, too;
352 suggested for Debian stable, which uses Perl 5.8.4.
354 2006-09-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
356 Automatically generated dependencies are important even
357 when all of the sources in a directory come from gnulib.
358 * bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Remove the "no-dependencies" automake
359 option that gnulib-tool adds to what becomes our lib/gnulib.mk.
361 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Enable Perl's (-T) taint checking.
362 Ensure that IFS is set properly and unset PATH.
364 Work properly even when the name of the selected file starts with "-".
365 Invoke rm via "../../src/rm", and adjust expected output.
366 Prompted by a patch from Tim Waugh.
368 * README-cvs: Add Bison to the list of required packages.
370 2006-09-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
372 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update offsets.
374 * NEWS: rm works around a bug in Darwin 8.6.1 w/NFS that kept
375 it from removing a directory containing 188 or more entries.
376 * src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Decrease by
377 20, go work around the buggy readdir on Darwin 8.6.1 with NFS.
378 Reported by Matthew Woehlke.
380 2006-09-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
382 * NEWS: "groups user" no longer outputs "user :"; you need at least
383 two users. "groups" now processes options like --help more compatibly.
384 * src/groups.sh: Implement the option-processing change.
385 Handle user and group names with special characters more robustly.
386 Report write errors instead of exiting silently with status 1.
388 2006-09-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
390 * README: Warn not to run autoreconf manually. Use bootstrap instead.
392 * src/groups.sh: When invoked with 0 or 1 argument, just exec "id".
393 Rewrite to avoid using temporary, $status.
395 * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
396 * src/groups.sh: Don't hide a write failure.
397 Reported by Iain Calder <ic56@rogers.com>.
399 2006-09-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
401 * src/chown.c (usage): Clarify --dereference description.
402 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise. Suggestion from Jamie McClelland.
404 2006-09-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
406 * NEWS: Mention these fixes.
407 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): With --verbose (-v), print
408 "removed `file_name'" just after unlinking a file.
409 (copy_internal): Likewise, in three more places.
410 Marc Lehman reported that "touch x; ln x y; mv -v x y" was silent.
411 * tests/mv/hard-verbose: New file. Test for the above fix.
412 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-verbose.
414 * tests/help-version (sync_args): Don't call sync, since it spins up
415 disks that I've deliberately caused to spin down (but not unmounted).
417 * NEWS: Mention the improvement to sort.
419 * tests/tail-2/proc-ksyms: Require that /proc/ksyms be readable
422 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Don't use tmpfs on linux-2.4 or older,
423 since that predated addition of d_type support.
425 2006-09-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
427 * gl/modules/getloadavg.diff: New file. Work around the way the latest
428 version of the getloadavg module interacts with our bootstrap script.
429 * bootstrap (gnulib_tool_options): Add "--local-dir gl".
430 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Sort file names.
431 Add bootstrap and gl/modules/getloadavg.diff
433 2006-09-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
435 * bootstrap: Add support for --force.
436 (usage): New function. Describe usage less tersely.
437 (CVS_only_file): New var.
439 * NEWS: Document fix for cp -i and mv -i.
440 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): With -i, prompt even if the source
441 is a directory and the destination is not. This is required by
442 POSIX and gives the user a chance to bail out before failing.
443 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-i.
444 * tests/cp/cp-i: New file.
445 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add i-5.
446 * tests/mv/i-5: New file.
448 2006-09-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
450 * NEWS: Mention the chmod bug fix.
452 * tests/chmod/inaccessible: New test, specifically for this bug.
453 Based on a test case from Paul Eggert.
454 * tests/chmod/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add inaccessible.
456 Fix the 2006-09-18 bug differently.
457 * src/chmod.c: (process_file): Upon FTS_NS for a top-level file,
458 tell fts_read to stat the file again, in case it has become
459 accessible since the initial fts_open call.
460 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Likewise.
462 * src/chmod.c: Revert last change. There is a better way.
463 * src/chown-core.c: Likewise.
465 2006-09-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
467 * src/ln.c (target_directory_operand): Rewrite to avoid porting
468 problem on Tandem reported by Matthew Woehlke in
469 <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17172>.
471 2006-09-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
473 Fix bug where chmod, chown, and chgrp did not process operands
474 left-to-right in some cases.
475 * src/chmod.c (wd_errno): New var.
476 (chmod_file): New function, with most of the contents of the
477 old prcess_file function.
478 (process_files): Use it. This gives file names to fts one
479 at a time, so that they are processed left-to-right as POSIX
481 * src/chown-core.c (wd_errno, chown_files): Likewise.
482 (chown_file): New function.
483 * tests/install/basic-1: Redo test so as to not workaround
484 the chmod bug, thereby testing for it.
486 * src/shuf.c (main): Quote the entire range when reporting an
487 invalid one, rather than just the part that contained the error.
489 * tests/stty/row-col-1: Rewrite to avoid temporary file that is
490 sometimes left behind if the test is skipped or interrupted.
492 * bootstrap (symlink_to_gnulib): New function.
493 (cp_mark_as_generated): Use it, to prefer symlinks-to-gnulib
495 (cp_mark_as_generated, slurp, gnulib_files):
496 Avoid making a copy if it's the same as the old version.
497 (gnulib_files): Add support for this variable (used by Bison).
499 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Fix quoting problem in diagnostic
500 indicating flaw in kernel. Reword to say that the flaw isn't
501 serious for coreutils, since the flaw does affect ls -i.
503 * tests/chgrp/basic: Fix bug in test case exposed by building on
504 Solaris 8 in a setgid directory. The test case incorrectly
505 assumed that 'symlink' would be in group $g1.
507 2006-09-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
509 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.3-cvs.
510 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.3 and add "-cvs" suffix.
513 * NEWS: Record the 6.2 release date.
514 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
516 2006-09-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
518 * tests/chgrp/basic: On an OpenBSD system, rather than failing
519 due to a known problem, merely warn about it.
520 Rewrite to avoid testing output of chgrp --verbose and chgrp -c.
521 Instead, use stat to test file system for desired results, directly.
522 * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set host_triplet.
524 * tests/envvar-check: Add more variable names to the list of those
525 that can affect these programs and tests: _POSIX2_VERSION, COLUMNS,
526 QUOTING_STYLE, TABSIZE, TERM, TMPDIR.
528 2006-09-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
530 * NEWS: Document that mkdir -p and install -d now fork on occasion.
531 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add savewd.
532 * src/install.c: Include savewd.h.
533 (process_dir): New function.
534 (main, install_file_in_file_parents): Use it, along with the new
535 savewd module, to avoid some race conditions.
536 * src/mkdir.c: Include savewd.h.
537 (struct mkdir_options): New members make_ancestor_function, mode,
539 (make_ancestor): Return 1 if the resulting directory is not readable.
540 (process_dir): New function.
541 (main): Use it, along with new savewd module, to avoid some
542 race conditions. Fill in new slots of struct mkdir_options, so
543 that callees get the values.
544 * tests/install/basic-1: Test for coreutils 5.97 bug that was
545 fixed in coreutils 6.0, and which should still be fixed with
547 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Likewise.
549 2006-09-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
551 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add rename-dest-slash.
552 The 2006-09-08 changes made it so "mv dir new-name/" would
553 fail on NetBSD 1.6. This makes it work once again.
555 2006-09-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
557 * src/mv.c (main): Remove unnecessary (always-true) test for 2 <= n.
558 Instead, since it's a little fragile, assert the condition.
559 (target_directory_operand): Update comment to reflect latest change.
561 2006-09-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
563 * src/who.c (print_user): Rewrite to avoid warning from
564 GCC 4.1.1 with -Wall.
566 2006-09-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
568 * tests/mv/atomic: Check for specific strace output, rather than
569 simply nonempty. RHEL AS 4 would fail this test due to strace
570 generating "[ Process PID=14434 runs in 32 bit mode. ]".
571 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
573 2006-09-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
575 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Move new cache_stat_init call onto
577 (rm_1): Move declaration of "st" and new cache_stat_init call
578 "down" to nearer where they're used.
579 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add another set of curly braces.
581 2006-09-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
583 * src/expr.c (eval6): Fix buffer overrun, or bad performance, if
584 substr's last operand is very large. Performance problem reported
587 2006-09-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
589 * Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4): Don't hang when there
591 (sc_require_config_h): Skip this test if there are no version-
593 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): Likewise.
595 2006-09-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
597 * bootstrap: Export CVS_RSH separate from its assignment, to work
598 even with Solaris 10's /bin/sh. Suggestion from Mark D. Baushke.
600 2006-09-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
602 * NEWS: tail now ignores the -f option if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set,
603 no file operand is given, and standard input is any FIFO.
604 This is in response to Open Group XCU ERN 114.
605 * src/tail.c (main): Likewise.
607 2006-09-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
609 mv and "cp -r" no longer fail when invoked with two arguments
610 where the first one names a directory and the second name ends in
611 a slash and doesn't exist. E.g., "mv dir B/", for nonexistent B,
612 now succeeds, once more. This reverts part of the 2004-06-27
614 * NEWS: Say the above.
615 * src/mv.c (target_directory_operand): Don't require (here)
616 that the target operand "look like" a directory. This change
617 pushes the test down to the rename syscall level, where a
618 "mv dir existing-non-dir/" will mistakenly succeed on older systems
619 that ignore trailing slashes in the rename destination argument.
620 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Likewise, but for cp.
621 * tests/mv/trailing-slash: Exercise the above fixes.
622 * tests/cp/trailing-slash: New file.
623 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add trailing-slash.
625 * bootstrap: Use the previously unused variable, $src,
626 to avoid repeating "$GNULIB_SRCDIR/$file".
628 * bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): Don't use "local", to
629 accommodate ancient "/bin/sh". Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
630 Rename now-global "$src" and "$dst" to have cp_ prefix.
631 Safer, and avoids confusion.
633 * bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): New function.
634 (slurp): Use it to prepend editor hints and a warning that
635 the file we're copying is generated.
636 Suggestion from Bruce Korb.
637 (cp_mark_as_generated): Don't add C-style comments for .l or .y files.
638 Fix last-minute typo.
640 2006-09-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
642 * bootstrap: Revert last change. There are less disruptive ways
643 to mark these generated files as read-only.
645 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to have proper offsets.
647 2006-09-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
649 Ensure that some gnulib-tool-generated files are read-only.
650 * bootstrap (slurp): Put the body of this function in a sub-shell,
651 with "umask a-w" so that all new files are read-only. Remove each
652 file before we write to it, in case it's read-only.
653 Make po/Makevars and runtime-po/Makevars read-only, too.
655 2006-09-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
657 * tests/cp/acl: Skip this test when cp lacks ACL support.
658 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set $(CONFIG_HEADER).
660 * src/c99-to-c89.diff (remove.c): Adapt one hunk to match the new
661 context from change of 2006-09-02.
663 2006-09-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
665 * README-cvs: Fix typo in update command.
667 2006-09-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
669 * NEWS: Tweak the wording in the new change description so that
670 no one can think this change causes e.g., `rm -fr foo../' to fail.
672 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Adjust for movement of config.h to lib/.
673 Use $CONFIG_HEADER, rather than hard-coding it.
674 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set $CONFIG_HEADER.
676 2006-09-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
678 * NEWS: rm now rejects attempts to remove /, ./, and ../.
679 * src/basename.c: Don't include dirname.h, since system.h does it now.
680 * src/chmod.c: Likewise.
681 * src/copy.c: Likewise.
682 * src/cp.c: Likewise.
683 * src/df.c: Likewise.
684 * src/dircolors.c: Likewise.
685 * src/dirname.c: Likewise.
686 * src/du.c: Likewise.
687 * src/install.c: Likewise.
688 * src/ln.c: Likewise.
689 * src/ls.c: Likewise.
690 * src/mkdir.c: Likewise.
691 * src/mv.c: Likewise.
692 * src/remove.c: Likewise.
693 * src/rm.c: Likewise.
694 * src/rmdir.c: Likewise.
695 * src/shred.c: Likewise.
696 * src/split.c: Likewise.
697 * src/su.c: Likewise.
698 * src/system.h: Include "dirname.h", since dot_or_dotdot needs it
700 (dot_or_dotdot): Succeed even if "." or ".." is followed by a
702 * src/rm.c (usage, main): --preserve-root is now the default.
703 * src/remove.h: Fix comment.
704 * src/remove.c (cache_fstatat, cache_stat_init): New functions.
705 (cache_statted, cache_stat_ok): New functions.
706 (write_protected_non_symlink): Remove struct stat ** buf_p arg,
707 which is no longer needed with the new functions. All callers
709 (prompt, is_dir_lstat, remove_entry, remove_dir):
710 New struct stat * arg. All callers changed.
711 (write_protected_non_symlink, prompt, is_dir_lstat, remove_entry):
712 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir, rm_1):
713 Use and maintain the file status cache.
714 (prompt, remove_entry): Omit the first "directory" in the diagnostic
715 "Cannot remove directory `foo': is a directory". This causes "rm"
716 to pass a test case that it would otherwise fail now that it
717 "knows" more about its argument. I think the diagnostic is better
718 without the first "directory" anyway.
719 (prompt): Remove the no-longer-needed IS_DIR arg; all callers changed.
720 (rm_1): Reject attempts to remove /, ./, or ../.
721 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add r-4.
722 * tests/rm/r-4: New file.
724 2006-09-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
726 * src/stat.c: Include <stddef.h>
727 (alignof): New macro.
728 (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID___VAL, HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_VAL):
730 (STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_IS_INTEGER): New macro.
732 (print_statfs): If f_fsid isn't an integer, grab its words one
733 at a time in little-endian order. This is a bit easier to configure
734 and should avoid a compilation failure on MacOS reported by Bruno
737 2006-08-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
739 * src/stat.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_VAL, FSID_VAL): New macros, to
740 work around a Mac OS X porting problem reported by Bruno Haible in
741 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00308.html>.
742 (print_statfs): Use them.
744 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add isapipe.
745 * src/tail.c: Include isapipe.h.
746 (IS_PIPE_LIKE_FILE_TYPE): Remove.
747 (IS_TAILABLE_FILE_TYPE): Just list both FIFOs and sockets as
748 tailable, since this seems to be portable.
749 (main): Use isapipe, to fix a bug on MacOS X reported by Bruno Haible in
750 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00304.html>.
752 * src/system.h (LOCALEDIR): Remove, since configmake.h now defines
755 2006-08-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
757 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't test whether macros like
758 S_ISLNK are defined, since they're always defined now.
759 * src/cp.c (main): Likewise.
760 * src/ln.c (main): Likewise.
761 * src/ls.c (get_link_name, make_link_name): Likewise.
762 * src/mknod.c (main): Likewise.
763 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Likewise.
764 * src/who.c (S_IWGRP): Likewise.
766 Adjust to recent gnulib changes for the gnulib module.
767 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fcntl.
768 * src/system.h (SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END): Remove. Other code
769 is already assuming these macros are defined.
770 (O_DIRECT, O_DIRECTORY, O_DSYNC, O_NDELAY, O_NOATIME, O_NONBLOCK):
771 (O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_NOLINKS, O_RSYNC, O_SYNC, O_BINARY, O_TEXT):
772 Remove; the fcntl module now handles these.
774 Adjust to recent gnulib changes for the inttypes module.
775 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove stdint; add inttypes.
776 (excluded_files): Don't exclude m4/inttypes-h.m4 or m4/inttypes-pri.m4.
778 * src/system.h: Don't bother to include <stdint.h>, since we can
779 now assume inttypes.h does the equivalent of including stdint.h.
781 2006-08-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
783 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't make a backup if the last
784 component of the source name is "." or "..".
785 Reported by Andreas Schwab in http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17540.
786 * NEWS: Mention this.
787 * tests/cp/src-base-dot: New file. Test for the above fix.
788 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add src-base-dot.
790 * src/system.h (DOT_OR_DOTDOT): Remove macro. Rewrite as a...
791 (dot_or_dotdot): ...new static inline function.
792 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Reflect this renaming.
793 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Likewise.
795 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Add comments.
797 2006-08-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
799 * src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove -I$(srcdir) and -I../lib,
800 since Automake supplies them for us. It always did -I$(srcdir),
801 and with the recent change to AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in configure.ac it
802 is now also doing -I../lib.
804 * bootstrap (get_translations): Skip this if WGET_COMMAND is empty.
805 Fail if the first "echo" fails. Suppress diagnostics from "ls po/*.po"
806 since there might not be any .po files.
807 (WGET_COMMAND): Set to empty if wget doesn't
808 seem to be available.
810 2006-08-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
812 This test was failing in some environments.
813 * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: Don't rely on eval "`dircolors -b`"
814 to set LS_COLORS in the environment.
815 * tests/envvar-check: Instead, ensure that LS_COLORS is not set.
816 Reported by Bob Proulx.
818 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove hunk for copy.c; no longer needed.
820 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove these files here, too:
821 .x-sc_no_if_have_config_h, .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use,
822 .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
824 Fix "mv --verbose --backup" so its output includes the
825 " (backup: foo.~1~)" suffix also when backing up a directory.
826 * NEWS: Report this bug fix.
827 * src/copy.c (emit_verbose): New function, factored out of...
828 (copy_internal): ...here. Use the new function.
829 * tests/mv/backup-dir: Test for the above fix.
830 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add backup-dir.
832 2006-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
834 * .x-sc_no_if_have_config_h: Remove; no longer needed.
835 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: Remove; it was empty.
836 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: Likewise.
837 * Makefile.maint (sc_no_have_config_h): Renamed from
838 sc_no_if_have_config_h, since it now checks that HAVE_CONFIG_H
839 is absent everywhere.
840 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add config-h.
841 * src/shred.c: Include <config.h> unconditionally, since
842 we now assume config.h exists.
843 * src/dircolors.c: Likewise.
845 2006-08-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
847 "ls --color" would highlight other-writable and sticky directories
848 no differently than regular directories on a file system with
849 dirent.d_type support.
850 * NEWS: Say the above.
851 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): With --color, also stat the file when
852 we know it is a directory.
853 Derived from an anonymous one-line fix and bug report:
854 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?15043>.
855 * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: New file. Test for the above fix.
856 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add color-dtype-dir.
858 2006-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
860 * .cvsignore: Remove stamp-h1. Add coreutils-*, to ignore
862 * bootstrap.conf: Add configmake, verify.
863 * src/.cvsignore: Remove localedir.h.
864 * src/Makefile.am (localedir, DISTCLEANFILES, localedir.h): Remove;
865 subsumed by configmake.
866 * src/system.h: Include configmake.h rather than localedir.h
867 (LOCALEDIR): New macro.
869 Rewrite to avoid some unnecessary casts, macros, literals.
870 * src/shred.c (DEFAULT_PASSES, VERBOSE_UPDATE): Now constants,
872 (SECTOR_SIZE, SECTOR_MASK): New constants.
873 (fillpattern, dopass, do_wipefd, main): Remove unnecessary casts,
874 and use the SECTOR_* constants when applicable. Check for size <
875 0 rather than size == -1, since negative-size files are a sign of
878 2006-08-25 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
880 * src/shred.c (dopass): Assume a continuable error if EIO even
881 if the current position is not a multiple of 512.
883 2006-08-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
885 * src/stat.c (print_statfs): Fix typo: remove extra "sizeof".
887 2006-08-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
889 * src/stat.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID___VAL): Define. This
890 macro was being used without being defined.
891 (SB_F_NAMEMAX): Remove cast.
892 (f_fsid) [BeOS]: Likewise.
893 (OUT_NAMEMAX): Renamed from NAMEMAX_FORMAT, with a new meaning.
895 (out_string, out_int, out_uint, out_uint_o, out_uint_x): New
897 (xstrcat): Remove. All uses changed to use the above functions.
898 (print_statfs, print_stat): 2nd arg is now the prefix len, not the
899 buffer len. All uses changed. Output '?', not '*', for unknown
900 data or errors. Do not assume signed values can be interchanged
901 with unsigned when printing.
902 (print_statfs): For %i, print the fsid as a single int, not as a
904 (print_it): Quote invalid format better.
906 * NEWS: printf supports the I flag.
907 * src/printf.c (print_formatted) [glibc 2.2 or later]: Likewise.
909 2006-08-23 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
911 * src/stat.c (STRUCT_STATVFS, statfs, f_fsid, f_blocks, f_bfree) [BeOS]:
912 (f_bavail, f_bsize, STATFS_FRSIZE, f_files, f_ffree) [BeOS]:
913 (STATXFS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_MEMBER_NAME) [BeOS]: Define.
915 * src/ls.c (SA_RESTART): Fallback define.
917 2006-08-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
919 * src/system.h (EDQUOT): Define if not already defined.
920 Problem reported by Bruno Haible for BeOS.
922 * .cvsignore: Remove config.h, config.hin, as they are now
924 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_HEADERS): Move config.h and config.hin
926 * src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove '-I..'; no longer needed.
928 * bootstrap (slurp): Define gl_LOCK_EARLY instead of gl_LOCK,
929 to accommodate today's gnulib change.
931 2006-08-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
933 * NEWS: Mention the sweeping infrastructure changes.
935 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
937 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnupload.
938 * Makefile.maint (emit_upload_commands): gnupload is now
940 * gnupload: Remove from CVS, since it's now a gnulib module.
942 * bootstrap (bootstrap_conf_cleanup): Remove.
943 (excluded_files): New var.
944 * bootstrap.conf: Likewise.
945 * bootstrap (slurp): Exclude files early if they're in the
946 excluded_files list. That way, their names don't get put into
949 * aclocal.m4, config.hin, configure:
950 Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically.
951 * .cvsignore: Add INSTALL, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, config.hin,
952 configure, *.cache, *.lineno, *.log.
953 Remove more-specific entries. This catches files like configure.lineno.
954 * man/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in.
955 * src/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in.
956 Remove .version, dir.c, install, mvdir, stamp-v, vdir.c, version.c.

1002 Add Makefile.in. Sort entries if necessary. Remove *.I, *.E,
1003 *.X, *.O, *-tests, build-script, mk-script if they're never
1004 created in this directory.
1006 2006-08-22 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
1009 * src/uptime.c: Include OS.h if it exists.
1010 (print_uptime): On BeOS, use the get_system_info function (actually a
1011 macro). Loop through utmp entries only if utmp.h or utmpx.h exists.
1012 (uptime): Call read_utmp only if utmp.h or utmpx.h exists.
1014 2006-08-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1016 * .cvsignore: Add ABOUT-NLS.
1018 Move the check-AUTHORS rule to be run as part of "make distcheck",
1019 rather than "make check".
1020 * src/Makefile.am (check): Don't depend on check-AUTHORS; it would
1021 cause "make check" to fail on systems unable to build all binaries.
1022 * Makefile.maint (check-AUTHORS): New rule.
1023 (local-checks-available): Add it here.

1028 * src/df.c (print_header, show_dev): Use a column width that
1029 depends on the block size of -P is specified and not autoscaling.
1030 Problem reported by Gustavo G. Rondina in:
1031 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00164.html
1033 2006-08-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1035 * tests/dircolors/simple (a): Don't fail with an unexpected diagnostic
1036 when the shell variable, SHELL, is not set.
1037 Trigger the failure with "(unset SHELL; make check TESTS=simple)".
1038 Reported by Sven Joachim in <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>.
1040 * src/od.c: Now that HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG is no longer defined
1041 in config.h, change the uses to HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT.
1042 Otherwise, on a system with 4-byte longs, "od -t u8" fails with this:
1043 od: invalid type string `u8';
1044 this system doesn't provide a 8-byte integral type
1045 FIXME: add a test for this, but skip it when sizeof uintmax < 8.
1047 2006-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1049 Add a bootstrap procedure, so that the CVS version contains fewer
1050 files and we bootstrap the rest from gnulib, gettext, etc.
1051 * README-cvs: New file.
1052 * bootstrap: New file.
1053 * bootstrap.conf: New file.
1054 * .x-sc_trailing_blank: Remove config-log, .gdb-history. Add .po.
1055 * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Move here from m4/*.m4, for benefit
1057 (gl_DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION, gl_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS, gl_PERL):
1058 (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Remove; now done by gnulib.
1060 (gl_MACROS): Call just after gl_EARLY, just for clarity.
1061 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove patch to ls.c; no longer needed.
1062 * src/kill.c (strtoimax): Remove decl.
1063 * src/ls.c: Include "wcwidth.h" instead of rolling it ourselves.
1064 * src/wc.c: Likewise.
1065 * src/ls.c (sort_files): Rewrite to avoid need for C99-style
1066 declaration, so that we don't need to patch this file.
1067 * src/printf.c (strtoimax, strtoumax): Remove decls.
1068 * src/su.c: Include getpass.h.
1070 * src/system.h: Include mempcpy.h, stpcpy.h, strpbrk.h.
1071 Include inttypes.h unconditionally.
1072 (LONGEST_MODIFIER, PRIdMAX, PRIoMAX, PRIuMAX, PRIxMAX): Remove.
1073 (stpcpy, strndup, strstr, strtoul, mempcpy, CHAR_MIN, CHAR_MAX):
1074 (SCHAR_MIN, SCHAR_MAX, UCHAR_MAX, SHRT_MIN, SHRT_MAX, INT_MAX):
1075 (INT_MIN, INTMAX_MAX, INTMAX_MIN, UINT_MAX, LONG_MAX, ULONG_MAX):
1076 (SIZE_MAX, SSIZE_MAX, UINTMAX_MAX): Remove.

1102 Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically.
1104 2006-08-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1106 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Reinstate the patch from 2006-08-15;
1107 the patch from 2006-08-18 broke on cygwin.
1109 2006-08-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1111 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.2-cvs.
1112 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.2 and add "-cvs" suffix.
1114 2006-08-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1117 * NEWS: Record the 6.1 release date.
1118 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
1120 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add sparse-file.
1122 Avoid test failure when `make check' is run through debuild.
1123 * tests/help-version: Ensure that $SHELL is set to some value
1124 and exported. Patch from Sven Joachim. For details, see
1125 <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>.
1127 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Test for the 2006-08-17 `ls -CF' fix.
1129 * README: Describe potential "pre-C99 build failure", and work-around.
1131 Some of my 2006-07-03 changes to tests/*/Makefile.am were being
1132 backed out due to updates provoked by the copyright changes.
1133 * tests/Makefile.am.in (PATH): Prepend $(VG_PATH_PREFIX), so that
1134 it propagates to the derived Makefile.am files.
1135 ($(srcdir)/Makefile.am): Mark generated .am files as read-only,
1136 so we don't mistakenly edit them again.
1137 * tests/cut/Makefile.am: Regenerate.
1138 * tests/head/Makefile.am: Likewise.

1146 * tests/uniq/Makefile.am: Likewise.
1147 * tests/wc/Makefile.am: Likewise.
1149 * NEWS: Fix cp --sparse so that it preserves tail-end sparseness, even
1150 when the file's apparent size is not a multiple of its block size.
1151 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't write a NUL before calling ftruncate.
1152 For some file sizes, writing that single byte would unnecessarily
1153 waste a few file blocks. That write may have been necessary in the
1154 early days of Linux, but now, removing it should be safe.
1155 Based on a patch by Alan Curry: <http://bugs.debian.org/370792>
1156 * tests/cp/sparse: New test for the above.
1157 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sparse.
1159 * tests/sparse-file: New file, essence factored out of...
1160 * tests/du/8gb: ... here. Use the new script.
1162 2006-08-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1164 * src/system.h (select_plural): Reduce by 1000000, not 1000, since
1165 the CVS gettext manual now suggests 1000000.
1167 2006-08-18 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
1169 Add support for NetBSD 3.0.
1170 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Set to 1 if 'struct statvfs' has a field
1172 (STATXFS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_MEMBER_NAME): Define also if 'struct statvfs'
1173 has a field f_fstypename.
1174 This undoes the 2006-08-15 to src/stat.c.
1176 2006-08-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

1516 ls -CF would misalign columns in some cases.
1517 * src/ls.c (get_type_indicator): New function. extracted from...
1518 (print_type_indicator): ...here. Use it.
1519 (length_of_file_name_and_frills): Use it here, too, rather than
1520 assuming stat.st_mode is valid.
1521 Reported by Andreas Schwab, here:
1522 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7774>
1523 See the test for this above. FYI, I did ls -CF /proc and visually
1524 inspected the result.
1526 * src/copy.c (copy_internal, same_file_ok): Adjust comments not
1527 to mention the now-removed cp_options.xstat member.
1529 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Adapt to work now that the patch
1530 modifies more than one file in src/.
1532 With this patch, permit building with Solaris cc on Solaris 7.
1533 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add diffs to convert more c99-isms.
1534 This integrates patches from Bruno Haible.
1536 2006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1538 Fix some problems reported by Bruno Haible.
1539 * tests/chmod/setgid (abs_srcdir): Remove; not used or needed.
1540 Skip this test if "chmod g+s d" silently does nothing.
1541 * tests/ls-2/tests: Skip this test suite if we can't set up files
1542 properly for the setuid-etc test. This simplifies some of the
1543 hacks we were using to work around porting problems.
1545 2006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1547 * tests/cp/Makefile.am: Don't mark "acl" as XFAIL.
1548 * tests/cp/acl: Instead, skip the test if either setfacl
1550 Reported by Michael Stone.
1552 2006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1554 * tests/lang-default (LC_ALL): Set to "C", so we get
1555 English-language diagnostics. Unset the other variables; it
1556 should be portable to use 'unset' for this stuff nowadays.
1557 Problem reported by Bruno Haible. Using "C" reverses the
1558 2000-10-22 change to fileutils in this area.
1560 Fix bugs when printing plurals of numbers that are not
1561 unsigned long int values.
1562 * src/system.h (select_plural): New function.
1563 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check): Use select_plural to avoid bug.
1564 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Likewise.
1565 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Likewise. Also, don't use ngettext to
1566 print a floating point number, as reducing to 0 or 1 doesn't work
1567 for some languages. Instead, just use "s" for seconds since it
1568 doesn't need a plural form.
1570 2006-08-16 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
1572 Old versions of gzip would write --help output to stderr, and it
1573 would be annoying to see that in the output of every "make" command.
1574 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): Throw away stderr output of
1577 2006-08-16 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
1579 * tests/cp/acl: Don't use non-portable == operator for test.
1581 2006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1583 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use stat to test file system type, rather
1584 than df -T, in case /etc/mtab lies. Reported by Michael Stone.
1586 2006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1588 * NEWS: Mention that df exits with nonzero status if it generates
1589 no output. This change was in 6.0 but inadvertently unmentioned.
1590 * src/df.c (file_systems_processed): Renamed from n_valid_args, and now
1592 (show_dev): Don't set it until we actually output something.
1593 Print the header if this is the first output.
1594 (main): Don't print a header, as that is now show_dev's job.
1595 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df.
1596 * tests/misc/df: New file.
1598 2006-08-15 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1600 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Define to 0 if f_type is needed, but
1601 statvfs.f_type not present. See
1602 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=16325>.
1604 2006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1606 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Don't substitute "1" for number, as this
1607 causes confusion for the Hungarian translators. Problem reported
1608 by Egmont Koblinger here:
1609 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7726
1611 2006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1613 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/at-func.c.
1615 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.1-cvs.
1616 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.1 and add "-cvs" suffix.
1618 2006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1621 * NEWS: Record the 6.0 release date.
1622 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
1624 * TODO: Add an item (convert to use gnulib-tool), add to the plan
1625 for id-vs-getgrouplist, and remove a few completed items.
1627 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): Fix syntax error.
1629 2006-08-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1631 * src/shred.c (usage): Don't indent the second line of an item.
1632 Otherwise, help2man would misformat the output.
1633 Reported by Adam Buchbinder in <https://launchpad.net/bugs/48917>.
1635 2006-08-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1637 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Upgrade to need-formatstring-macros.
1638 Suggested by Eric Blake to avoid problems like
1639 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-07/msg00087.html>.
1641 2006-08-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1643 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Too many (losing) systems trigger the
1644 failure that this test checks for (stat/dirent inode mismatch at
1645 a mount point), so continue to give a diagnostic about the failure,
1646 but don't actually count it as a failure.
1648 2006-08-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1650 * ABOUT-NLS: Update from gettext 0.15.
1651 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Update from 0.13.1 to 0.15.
1653 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Remove fastmap member.
1654 (extract_regexp): Allocate fastmap separately, since otherwise
1655 it might move due to a realloc. This fixes a bug that led
1656 to a core dump on 64-bit sparc Solaris 10 (Sun Studio 10).
1658 2006-08-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1660 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: If "." is tmpfs, skip this test unless uname -s
1661 reports "Linux". This avoids a failure on Solaris 10's tmpfs.
1662 Redirect both stdout and stderr of df invocations.
1664 * src/dircolors.hin: Add a TERM directive for each of the following:
1665 ansi, color-xterm, gnome, konsole, kterm, rxvt-cygwin,
1666 rxvt-cygwin-native, screen.linux, xterm-256color.
1667 Sort the TERM directives.
1668 From Mike Frysinger.
1670 2006-08-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1672 * src/dd.c (usage): Warn about oflag=append without conv=notrunc.
1673 See Debian bug 373736.
1675 * src/dircolors.hin: Add mlterm, rxvt-unicode; this fixes Debian
1678 * src/.cvsignore: Add shuf.
1680 * Makefile.maint: Remove the po-update procedure; it doesn't
1681 work with the new repository on http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/.
1682 For now I guess we'll have to fix things by hand.
1683 (do-po-update, po-update): Remove. All references removed.
1685 * src/shuf.c (next_line): New function.
1686 (read_input): Use it, to avoid relying on GCC-specific behavior
1687 with void * arithmetic. Problem reported by Bob Proulx.
1688 * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Compile with -Wpointer-arith
1689 to detect this sort of problem automatically in the future.
1691 2006-08-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1693 * src/ls.c: Add a compile-time check to ensure that filetype
1694 and filetype_letter have the same number of elements.
1696 * tests/misc/sort-rand: Remove use of --seed=S.
1698 2006-08-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1700 Add a command 'shuf', and modify shred and sort to use the new
1701 random number generator library of 'shuf'.
1703 * AUTHORS: Add shuf.
1705 * NEWS: Likewise. Mention new --random-source option for shred
1706 and sort. Move "sort +1 -2" notice to the appropriate section,
1707 and clarify its role with respect to POSIXLY_CORRECT.
1708 * man/.cvsignore: Add shuf.1.
1709 * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add shuf.1.
1710 (shuf.1): New dependency.
1711 * man/shuf.x: New file.
1712 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add shuf.
1713 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rand-isaac.c.
1714 (shuf_LDADD): New macro.
1715 * src/rand-isaac.c: Remove, moving most of its contents to
1717 * src/shuf.c: New file.
1718 * src/shred.c: Use new random-number interface rather than rand-isaac.c.
1719 Don't include rand-isaac.c; include randint.h and randread.h instead.
1720 (RANDOM_SOURCE_OPTION): New enum.
1721 (long_opts, usage, main): New option --random-source.
1722 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
1723 * src/shred.c (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Remove.
1724 All callers changed to use randint interface.
1725 (fillrand): Remove. All callers changed to use randread interface.
1726 (dopass): Remove dependency on ISAAC buffer size.
1727 (genpattern): Don't wipe the random state here.
1728 (randint_source): New static var.
1729 (clear_random_data): New function.
1730 (main): Allocate random source, and arrange to wipe it on exit.
1731 * src/sort.c: Include md5.h, randread.h, xmemxfrm.h.
1732 (longopts, usage, main): Remove undocumented --seed option;
1733 it's now replaced by --random-source.
1734 (rand_state, get_hash): Remove.
1735 (randread_source): New static var.
1736 (random_state, cmp_hashes, compare_random): New functions; they guarantee
1737 no collisions in the random hash function.
1738 (keycompare): Use compare_random for -R; don't fall back on comparing
1739 via memcoll, since compare_random does the right thing.
1740 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add shuf.
1741 * tests/misc/shuf: New file.
1743 2006-07-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1745 * src/copy.c (set_author): Preserve the st_author field via the
1746 file descriptor dest_desc.
1748 2006-07-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1750 * NEWS: chmod now preserves setuid and setgid bits on directories
1751 if you use a numeric mode with them clear, e.g., "chmod 755 DIR".
1753 Fix test case problems if working directory is setgid,
1754 reported by Bob Proulx.
1755 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use symbolic mode so that we clear
1756 setgid bit more reliably on directories.
1757 * tests/mkdir/special-1 (set_mode_string): Likewise.
1759 2006-07-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1761 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Use correct grammar in description of the
1763 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
1765 2006-07-26 Thomas Schwinge <tschwinge@gnu.org> (tiny change)
1767 * src/copy.c (set_author) [HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]:
1768 Correctly access SRC_SB's element ST_AUTHOR.
1770 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1772 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Adapt to match new expected output.
1775 * src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Test for S_IFREG first, rather
1776 than having the code test for all of the other types first.
1777 Hoist the set-uid/gid-testing code "up" into this new block.
1778 Classify any other type of file (e.g., S_TYPEISSHM, etc.) as
1779 C_ORPHAN, not as C_FILE.
1781 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1783 Checking in a change from Paul.
1785 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1787 * src/ls.c (DT_INIT): Remove. All uses removed.
1788 (enum filetype): Use an ordinary enum rather than trying to keep
1789 the values in sync with DT_FIFO etc. That way, we don't have
1790 to make special assumptions about them. All uses changed.
1791 (whiteout): New constant member of enum filetype.
1792 (filetype_letter): New constant, for use with enum filetype.
1793 (FILETYPE_INDICATORS): New initializer list.
1794 (print_dir): Add case for DT_WHT.
1795 (gobble_file): If stat fails, don't discard information from
1796 readdir; instead, preserve it so it can be printed.
1797 (print_long_format): Fall back on readdir result if stat info
1798 is not available. Use "?" to denote each unknown mode char,
1799 instead of an overall "?", since we now know some of the mode
1801 (print_type_indicator): Now that MODE isn't necessarily
1802 useful, guard all uses.
1803 Now that two blocks in the type-checking tree can set "type = C_FILE",
1804 move the suffix-handling code out and down.
1806 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1808 Prepare for the above change.
1809 * src/ls.c [struct fileinfo] (stat_ok): Rename from stat_failed,
1810 and adjust uses. From a patch by Paul Eggert.
1812 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1814 * src/ls.c: Correct indentation/formatting in a few places.
1816 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1818 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use "chmod 0500" rather than "chmod 500".
1819 Problem report and fix from Bob Proulx.
1820 * NEWS: Clarify the "chmod 0500" news, and correct the vague
1821 statements about compatibility with BSD.
1823 2006-07-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1825 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): When handling a stat-failed entry,
1826 print the entry name not the absolute_name -- to be consistent
1827 with the usual case.
1828 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Update accordingly.
1830 * src/ls.c: Add parens around the new uses of ?: ternary operator.
1832 * src/dircolors.hin: Mention that ORPHAN refers not just to dangling
1835 Get --dired offsets right when handling stat-failed entries.
1836 * src/ls.c (print_long_format): Be careful to increment P by the
1837 appropriate amount, even when inode_number_width and nlink_width
1839 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Test for the above.
1841 * src/ls.c (gobble_file) [USE_ACL]: Don't use-uninitialized the
1842 have_acl member. That would happen for a directory with both a
1843 non-stat'able entry and one with an ACL.
1845 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Make it so failure to stat a
1846 non-command-line file provokes an exit status of 1, not 0.
1847 Say "cannot access" rather than "cannot stat".
1848 * tests/ls/stat-failed: New file/test, for the above.
1849 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-failed.
1850 * tests/ls-2/tests (no-a-isdir-b): Update to reflect addition
1851 of "cannot access " to diagnostic.
1853 * src/ls.c: Declare stat_failed to be "bool", not "int" everywhere.
1855 * src/ls.c [enum filetype] (command_line): Remove member. Not needed.
1856 Replace all occurrences of "type == command_line" with the
1857 equivalent, "command_line_arg".
1859 * src/ls.c: Apply the stat-failed parts of Red Hat's
1860 coreutils-selinux.patch. From Ulrich Drepper.
1861 This makes it so files not mentioned on the command line (e.g.,
1862 names read from a directory that *is* mentioned on the command
1863 line) for which stat fails are still listed. With --color,
1864 such files are colored just like ORPHANs (aka dangling symlinks).
1866 * src/df.c (n_valid_args): Declare global to be static.
1868 2006-07-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1870 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Skip this test on reiserfs, since that file
1871 system lacks d_type support.
1873 2006-07-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1875 * man/chmod.x: Update to reflect recent changes to coreutils.texi.
1877 2006-07-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1879 * src/su.c (usage): Correct typo in --help output: s/commmand/command/
1880 Reported by Tim Waugh.
1881 Also remove the comment duplicating much of --help output.
1883 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): Reposition this new
1884 name so the list remains alphabetized.
1886 Fix another bug: ls --indicator-style=file-type would call
1887 stat for a symlink, even though it wasn't always needed.
1888 In some cases, that unnecessary stat would cause ls to fail.
1889 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Don't treat symlinks specially (in
1890 requiring a stat syscall). Remove the offending exclusion.
1892 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
1894 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: New file/test, for the above fix.
1895 Also exercises the new df feature, below.
1897 * src/df.c (main): Fail and don't print the headers if no
1898 file system is processed. This makes it easy to test whether
1899 a specified directory is on a file system of a given type or types.
1900 Otherwise, applications would have had to parse df's output.
1901 E.g., is "." either ext3 or reiserfs: df -t ext3 -t reiserfs .
1903 Fix a bug: ls --file-type worked like --indicator-style=slash,
1904 rather than like --indicator-style=file-type.
1905 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): New enum member.
1906 (long_options): Map "file-type" to FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION,
1908 (decode_switches): Handle new case: FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION.
1909 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
1910 * tests/ls-2/tests (file-type): New test, for the above fix.
1912 2006-07-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1914 * src/ls.c (print_dir): Give a better diagnostic for failed opendir.
1916 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/vc-list-files.
1918 2006-07-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1920 * NEWS: chmod, install, and mkdir now leave setgid and setuid bits
1921 of directories alone unless you specify them explicitly.
1922 install and mkdir now implement X correctly.
1923 install now creates parent directories with mode 755, without
1924 changing their owner or group.
1925 * src/chmod.c (process_file): Adjust to mode_adjust API change.
1926 * src/install.c: Include mkancesdirs.h.
1927 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions.
1928 (DEFAULT_MODE): New macro, specifying initial value of 'mode'.
1930 (dir_mode, dir_mode_bits): New vars.
1931 (main): Set dir modes separately from nondir, so that the X
1932 op of -m works correctly.
1933 (main): Remove cwd_errno cruft, since make_dir_parents no longer
1934 affects cwd. Adjust to new make_dir_parents API.
1935 (install_file_in_file_parents): 2nd arg is now char *, not char
1936 const *. Use mkancesdirs instead of rolling our own code.
1937 (change_attributes): Don't worry about AFS, since that kludge
1938 should not be needed any more.
1939 * src/mkdir.c (struct mkdir_options): New struct.
1940 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions.
1941 (main): Use them. Adjust to mode_adjust API change. Stick with
1942 umask 0. Use make_dir_parents for all the work.
1943 * src/mkfifo.c (main): Adjust to new mode_adjust API.
1944 * src/mknod.c (main): Likewise.
1945 * tests/chmod/setgid: Do the setgid test instead of bailing.
1946 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Remove re_protect case that no longer applies.
1947 GNU chmod now behaves like other versions of chmod.
1948 * tests/mkdir/perm: Add a test for the X bug.
1950 2006-07-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1952 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Output to parameter OUT, not to stdout.
1953 This doesn't fix any bugs, since OUT always equals stdout, but it
1954 makes the code easier to understand.
1956 2006-07-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1958 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use new file, build-aux/vc-list-files,
1959 rather than open-coding it. Now supports mercurial, too.
1960 * .hgignore: New file.
1961 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .hgignore, which ignores nearly
1962 all generated files, including ones like configure and po/*.po
1963 that are currently version-controlled in cvs.
1965 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add a few more .??* files.
1966 They've been in CVS, just haven't been distributed before this.
1967 Distribute ChangeLog-2005, too.
1968 (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add THANKS-to-translators.
1970 2006-07-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1972 * src/system.h: Assume <dirent.h> exists, since gnulib assumes
1975 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1977 * tests/mv/dir2dir: Adjust so failing with ENOTEMPTY is ok, too.
1978 That happens with Linux/tmpfs.
1979 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir2dir.
1981 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1983 Adjust to recent updates from gnulib.
1984 * src/dd.c (apply_translations): Use toupper rather than
1985 islower followed by toupper; it's simpler and typically
1986 faster now that we assume at least C89 semantics. Similarly
1988 * src/sort.c (inittables): Likewise.
1989 * src/expand.c (expand): Don't assume that isprint etc. return
1990 booleans (needed for pre-C99 hosts).
1991 * src/fmt.c (check_punctuation): Likewise.
1992 * src/ptx.c (initialize_regex, fix_output_parameters): Likewise.
1993 * src/tr.c (is_char_class_member): Likewise.
1994 * src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Likewise.
1995 * src/join.c (is_blank): Remove; no longer needed. All uses
1996 replaced by isblank (to_uchar (...)).
1997 * src/pinky.c (create_fullname): Don't assume char is unsigned.
1998 * src/printf.c (print_esc): Likewise.
1999 * src/ptx.c (SKIP_NON_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE_BACKWARDS):
2000 (copy_unescaped_string): Likewise.
2001 * src/stat.c (print_it): Likewise.
2002 * src/system.h (_D_EXACT_NAMELEN): Renamed from NLENGTH, for
2003 convenience on GNU systems. All uses changed. Don't bother
2004 looking for any dirent.h substitute other than ndir.h.
2005 (D_INO): Remove unnecessary parentheses.
2006 (IN_CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISGRAPH, ISPRINT, ISALNUM, ISALPHA):
2007 (ISCNTRL, ISLOWER, ISPUNCT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER, ISXDIGIT):
2008 (ISDIGIT_LOCALE, TOLOWER, TOUPPER): Remove. All uses changed
2009 to ctype.h equivalents.
2010 (isblank): Renamed from ISBLANK. Check for HAVE_DECL_ISBLANK too.
2013 2006-07-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2015 * tests/mv/dir2dir: New file, test for 2006-07-05 fix in copy.c.
2017 * Makefile.maint (sc_the_the): New rule.
2019 * src/dd.c (skip): Remove one of two adjacent "the"s in a comment.
2020 * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Remove one of two adjacent "then"s
2023 2006-07-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2025 * NEWS: Mention that mv can now remove an empty destination directory,
2026 and give an example. Prompted by a report from Florent Bayle.
2028 2006-07-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2030 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct the description of -G: it is useful
2031 only in a long listing. Reported by Martin Pool in
2032 <https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/51653>.
2034 * man/chmod.x: Correct the description of the sticky bit. Reported
2035 by Chris Moore via Ian Jackson in <http://bugs.debian.org/376745>.
2037 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't work around old NFS clients like
2038 SunOS-4.1.4 and Irix 5.3 that set errno to values like EIO and
2039 ENOTEMPTY upon failed rename. Otherwise, we risk misinterpreting
2040 a banal failure as a recursive move-into-self failure.
2041 Reported by Florent Bayle in <http://bugs.debian.org/376749>.
2043 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
2045 2006-07-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2047 Plug another unusual leak.
2048 (AD_mark_helper): Free malloc'd filename if hash_insert says
2049 that string is already in the hash table.
2051 The dev/inode of the topmost directory in each hierarchy were not
2053 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Don't call cycle_check here.
2054 (AD_push): Call it from here instead.
2056 Fix two small leaks.
2057 * src/remove.c (AD_stack_clear): New function.
2059 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Free *prev_dir just before longjmp.
2061 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/*/Makefile.am: (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
2062 Add $VG_PATH_PREFIX as a prefix to $PATH
2064 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add CDPATH and POSIXLY_CORRECT.
2065 * tests/Makefile.am (evar-check): Remove rule.
2066 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove .env-warn.
2067 * tests/.env-warn: Remove file. No longer used.
2068 Suggestion from Eric Blake.
2070 2006-07-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2072 * src/system.h: Include <stdint.h> unconditionally, since we
2073 now assume the stdint module.
2075 2006-07-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2077 * NEWS: With no operand, 'tail -f' now silently ignores the '-f'
2078 only if standard input is a FIFO or pipe and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
2079 * src/tail.c (main): Implement this.
2080 * tests/tail/Test.pm (f-pipe-1): Renamed from f-1.
2081 (test_vector): Set POSIXLY_CORRECT for the f-pipe-* tests.
2083 2006-07-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2085 * src/ln.c (do_link): Use new, shorter URL, for ag-review link.
2087 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add ^lib/xstrtold\.c$, so make distcheck
2090 2006-06-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2092 * NEWS: seq now uses long double internally rather than double.
2093 It now defaults to a minimal fixed point format if possible.
2094 It lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, %G.
2095 * src/Makefile.am (seq_LDADD): Remove $(SEQ_LIBM); add $(POW_LIB).
2096 * src/seq.c: Don't include <math.h> or <xstrtol.h>; no longer needed.
2097 (isfinite) [!defined isfinite]: New macro.
2098 (separator, terminator): Now points to const.
2099 (first, step, last): Remove.
2100 (usage): Update to match new behavior.
2101 (struct operand, operand): New type.
2102 (scan_arg): Renamed from scan_double_arg, since we no longer use double.
2104 Compute and return a value of type operand, not double.
2105 (long_double_format): Renamed from valid_format, and now returns a
2106 new format with an "L" added if needed, if the original format was
2107 valid. Allow %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats.
2108 (print_numbers): Take numeric values as args rather than from globals.
2109 Print long double, not double.
2110 (get_width_format): Remove.
2111 (get_default_format): New function.
2112 (main): Implement new way of calculating default format.
2113 Don't worry about locale's representation of the decimal point, since
2114 the arguments are always processed in the C locale.
2115 * tests/seq/basic (neg-2): Adjust to new default format.
2116 (eq-wid-1, eq-wid-2): Resurrect these tests, since the new
2117 implementation should do the right thing.
2119 2006-06-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2121 * tests/stty/basic-1: Work around an intermittent test failure
2122 on HP-UX 11.11. Report and analysis from Bob Proulx.
2123 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7475
2125 2006-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2127 * NEWS: Support obsolete usages like "sort +1 -2" even when
2128 conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001, since this is a pure extension to
2129 POSIX. Problem reported by Christian in:
2130 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00220.html
2131 * src/sort.c (main): Implement this.
2133 * src/system.h (CLOSEDIR): Remove. All uses changed to closedir.
2134 Autoconf 2.60 says this stuff was obsolete.
2136 2006-06-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2138 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
2140 2006-06-28 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
2142 * tests/mv/i-link-no: Work around HP-UX /bin/sh tracing problem
2143 (set -x when VERBOSE=yes) when stderr is redirected before stdout
2144 causing shell tracing of the stdout redirection to be written to
2145 the stderr file. Avoid problem and test failure on HP-UX by
2146 redirecting stderr last.
2147 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Order shell file redirections for
2148 stderr and stdout in the common style.
2149 tests/acl: Likewise.
2151 2006-06-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2153 * tests/misc/cat-proc: Try to avoid any spurious numeric
2154 differences in frequently-changing /proc/cpuinfo.
2155 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
2157 2006-06-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2159 Attempt rmdir (actually, unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR) upon any
2160 fd_to_subdirp failure, not just when errno == EACCES.
2161 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Use unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR, not
2162 rmdir, here, even though rmdir may happen to be adequate.
2164 * NEWS: rm no longer fails to remove an empty, unreadable directory
2165 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): If we can't open a directory,
2166 and the failure is not being ignored, try to remove the directory
2167 with rmdir (aka unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR), in case it's empty.
2168 Problem report and test case from Paul Eggert in
2169 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7425>.
2171 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test, for the above.
2173 Avoid a segfault for wc --files0=- < /dev/null.
2174 * src/wc.c (compute_number_width): Return right away if nfiles == 0.
2176 2006-06-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2178 * NEWS: wc accepts a new option --files0-from=FILE, where FILE
2179 contains a list of NUL-separated file names.
2181 * src/wc.c: Include "readtokens.h".
2182 (usage): Describe the new option, and adjust the `Usage':
2183 with this option, no FILE may be specified on the command line.
2184 (main): Handle the new option.
2185 * tests/misc/wc-files0: New tests, for the above.
2186 * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: Likewise.
2187 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add wc-files0.
2189 2006-06-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2191 * src/md5sum.c (DIGEST_BUFFER): Remove now-unused definitions.
2193 2006-06-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2195 * src/tee.c (tee_files): Rename from tee, to avoid conflict with
2196 the function in glibc's <fcntl.h>. Reported by Andreas Schwab.
2198 2006-06-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2200 * Makefile.cfg (local-checks-to-skip): Add changelog-check,
2201 so this check is not run as part of "make distcheck".
2203 2006-06-18 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
2205 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Fix typo (s/neq/ne/) in previous change.
2207 2006-06-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2209 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Make error output a little clearer.
2211 2006-06-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2213 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Skip this test on systems without openat
2214 support. Reported by Bob Proulx.
2216 2006-06-15 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
2218 * tests/misc/mknod: Improve permission checks to handle
2219 running mkdir test in set-gid directories.
2221 2006-06-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2223 * tests/du/basic: Revamp not to hard-code file system block sizes.
2225 2006-06-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2227 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass $(PERL), for
2230 2006-06-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2232 * .gitignore: New file.
2233 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .gitignore.
2235 Setting TIME_STYLE=long-iso in the environment would make the
2236 cp/same-file test fail.
2237 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add TIME_STYLE to the list.
2238 * tests/cp/same-file: Revert last change.
2239 Source the envvar-check script, to ensure that TIME_STYLE
2240 settings don't affect these tests.
2242 2006-06-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2244 * tests/cp/same-file: Execute 'ls' in the C locale, so that it
2245 uses POSIX time stamp formats. Problem reported by John Nixon in
2246 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00062.html>.
2248 2006-06-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2250 * NEWS: Mention the AIX-strndup-bug vs. dircolors workaround.
2252 Require a "Version N.M" line at the top of the ChangeLog
2253 file only when making the actual release, not when running
2255 * Makefile.maint (maintainer-distcheck): Don't depend on
2257 (alpha beta major): Depend on it here, instead.
2259 2006-06-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2261 Ensure that cat works with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T,
2262 when applied to files in /proc and /sys, even when the FIONREAD
2263 ioctl produces nonsensical results. Before this change, cat would
2264 produce no output (or truncated output), for some linux kernels.
2266 * src/cat.c (write_pending): New function, factored out of cat.
2267 (cat): Also interpret a negative ioctl/FIONREAD count as indicating
2268 that there are bytes to read. Some versions of linux-2.6.16 do that.
2269 Write any pending output before returning.
2270 Reported by Dan Jacobson in <http://bugs.debian.org/370583>.
2271 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
2272 * tests/misc/cat-proc: New file. Test for the above.
2273 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cat-proc.
2275 2006-06-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2277 * src/expr.c (eval4): Detect overflow properly when multiplying
2280 2006-06-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2282 * NEWS: The 'expr' command now detects and reports integer overflow.
2283 (It would be better to use extended precision instead, but that
2284 would be more work.)
2285 * src/expr.c (integer_overflow): New function.
2286 (eval4, eval3): Check for integer overflow.
2288 2006-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2290 Fix problems when building with Solaris/SVR4/etc. make, which uses a
2291 different and somewhat bogus implementation of VPATH. In the
2292 directory tests/misc, rename tests whose names might appear in the
2293 Automake-generated rules. For example, we can't use a test named
2294 'test', since Automake generates a rule that contains the text
2295 "if test -f ./$$tst; ...", and this might expand to something like
2296 "if ../../../coreutils-6.0/tests/misc/test -f ./$$test; ...",
2297 which executes the 'test' script rather than the 'test' command.
2298 * tests/misc/false-status: Renamed from tests/misc/false.
2299 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Renamed from tests/misc/pwd.
2300 * tests/misc/sort-merge: Renamed from tests/misc/sort.
2301 ($prog): Set to 'sort' rather than to $PROG.
2302 * tests/misc/test-diag: Renamed from tests/misc/test.
2303 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (PROG): Take the basename of $$tst,
2304 in case Solaris make has prepended the directory.
2305 (TESTS): Adjust to above renamings.
2306 * tests/misc/expand: Don't assign to PROG; no longer needed
2307 now that Makefile.am sets PROG to the basename.
2308 * tests/misc/fold: Likewise.
2310 2006-06-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2312 Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the
2313 link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link.
2314 * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use
2315 the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing.
2316 Based on the patch by Aurelien Jarno: <http://bugs.debian.org/329451>
2317 * tests/cp/link-no-deref: New file/test for the above.
2318 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-no-deref.
2319 * NEWS: Mention the change (doesn't affect Linux).
2321 2006-06-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2323 Fix some porting problems in the test cases reported by
2324 Ralf Wildenhues for HP-UX 11.23 in:
2325 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00238.html
2326 * tests/help-version: Don't assume that \< \> works in sed.
2327 * tests/misc/close-stdout: Don't assume that >&- works.
2328 Add a /dev/full test.
2329 * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Don't assume that >&- works.
2331 2006-05-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2333 * src/ls.c (usage): Add `v' to the list of sorting-related options.
2336 2006-05-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2338 * tests/cp/fail-perm: source lang-default.
2339 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Likewise.
2341 2006-05-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2343 * tests/rm/inaccessible: AIX 4.3.3 gives a different diagnostic.
2344 Recognize it, too. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues, in
2345 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html
2347 2006-05-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2349 * src/chgrp.c: Support new options: --preserve-root and
2350 --no-preserve-root. Somehow this program was skipped when those
2351 options were added to chown, chmod, and rm. Reported by
2352 vaqflabuopac@spammotel.com in <http://bugs.debian.org/365656>.
2353 * NEWS: Mention this.
2355 2006-05-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2357 * NEWS: Remove mention of --seed. We'll replace it with something
2358 better, and don't want to indicate that it is supported.
2359 * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise.
2361 2006-05-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2363 * src/chmod.c (main): Use FTS_PHYSICAL here, too.
2365 * src/du.c (main): Rename local, s/symlink_deref_bit/symlink_deref_bits/
2366 and arrange for -D to set fts' FTS_PHYSICAL bit as well as
2367 FTS_COMFOLLOW. Spotted by Justin Pryzby.
2369 * gnupload: Merge changes from automake, retaining the ""--to...
2370 kludge to placate overzealous `make distcheck' check.
2372 2006-05-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2374 * src/du.c (main): Don't let -D, -L, or -P turn off the internal
2375 FTS_TIGHT_CYCLE_CHECK directory traversal option.
2376 Reported by Justin Pryzby in http://bugs.debian.org/367691
2378 2006-05-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2380 * src/cp.c (usage): Correct description of -a: s/-dpR/-dpPR/.
2381 From Tomas Pospisek.
2383 2006-05-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2385 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: Test two more cases.
2387 2006-05-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2389 mv -T DIR EMPTY_DIR no longer fails unconditionally
2390 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't manually prohibit a move where
2391 the destination is an existing directory. Sometimes doing that is
2392 valid. Let the rename system call enforce the rules. That is
2393 allowed only when the source is a directory and the destination
2394 directory (to be replaced) is empty. Reported by Eric Blake.
2395 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: New file/test for this.
2396 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add no-target-dir.
2397 * NEWS: Mention this.
2399 * tests/mv/atomic: New file/test for yesterday's fix.
2400 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add atomic.
2402 * tests/du/long-sloop: Avoid harmless `ambiguous redirect' diagnostic.
2404 2006-05-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2406 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't explicitly unlink the destination
2407 when moving a symlink into the place of an existing non-directory.
2408 Reported by Joshua Hudson.
2409 * NEWS: mention this.
2411 2006-05-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2413 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Fail if patch generates any output,
2414 even merely for changed offsets.
2416 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust to reflect new offsets.
2418 * NEWS: Mention changes affecting df, pwd, shred.
2420 2006-05-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2422 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: New test, to detect the bogus file
2423 system condition where dirent.d_ino != stat.st_ino.
2424 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-vs-dirent.
2426 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2428 * tests/ls/inode: Expand to test inode from readdir case.
2429 * tests/ls/follow-slink: Expand to test broken links encountered
2430 implicitly, favoring Solaris 9 and OpenBSD 3.4 behavior.
2432 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2434 * tests/mv/leak-fd: Work even on case-insensitive file system.
2436 2006-05-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2438 * NEWS: Mention the 2006-03-19 pwd-related change that makes
2439 lib/getcwd.c work around inconsistent file system dirent.d_ino data.
2441 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2443 * src/ls.c (DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS, LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS):
2444 Use better macro parameter names: s/basename/key_name/,
2445 s/basefunc/key_cmp_func. Fix typo in comment.
2447 2006-04-29 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2449 * src/ls.c (main): On systems with d_type, directories_first only
2450 implies format_needs_type, not format_needs_stat.
2452 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2454 * src/ls.c (xstrcoll_df_version, rev_xstrcoll_df_version): Add space
2455 after comma in arg list, from Eric Blake.
2457 2006-04-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2459 * tests/misc/date (relative-3): New test, derived from a bug
2460 report by John Thomas McDole.
2462 2006-04-23 Francesco Montorsi <fr_m@hotmail.com>
2464 New option for ls: --group-directories-first.
2465 It makes ls list directories before files.
2466 * NEWS [New features]: Mention it.
2467 * src/ls.c (sort_type): Rearrange to use as an array index when
2468 choosing sort function; added new sort_numtypes member for
2470 (time_type): Add new time_numtypes member for compile-time check.
2471 (directories_first): New global variable.
2472 (GROUP_DIRECTORIES_FIRST_OPTION): New enum.
2473 (long_options): Add --directories-first.
2474 (main): Support new option.
2475 (is_directory): New function.
2476 (extract_dirs_from_files): Use it.
2477 (DIRFIRST_CHECK, DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS)
2478 (LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS): New macros.
2479 (sort_functions): New global variable.
2480 (sort_files): Use it.
2481 (usage): Document new option.
2483 2006-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2485 * src/shred.c (fillrand): The assertion was way too weak, due to
2486 what must be a typo. Strengthen it to its intended value.
2487 (dopass): Don't use alloca; it's not worth the aggravation here,
2488 since it's used only to get a page-aligned buffer, and page
2489 alignment doesn't buy us much here. I'm suspicious that alloca
2490 causes problems on some hosts, due to a recent bug report by Adam
2491 Waltman: http://bugs.gentoo.org/130246.
2493 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2495 * tests/misc/tty-eof: Add new programs, base64, sha224sum, sha256sum,
2496 sha384sum, sha512sum.
2498 2006-04-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2500 * src/chmod.c (describe_change): Adjust to filemode changes.
2501 * src/ls.c (HAVE_ST_DM_MODE): Remove; moved to ../lib/filemode.c.
2502 (print_long_format): Use (new) filemodestring rather than
2503 (old) mode_string, so that we get more file types right, at least
2504 in theory. Adjust to filemode changes.
2505 * src/stat.c (human_access): Likewise.
2507 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2509 * src/ptx.c (main) [DEFAULT_IGNORE_FILE]: Remove code to use a default
2510 ignore file. This has never been enabled. Reported by Eric Blake.
2512 2006-04-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2514 * src/ln.c (linkfunc): Remove. This method ran into a compiler/linker
2515 bug in Interix. Just call symlink or link directly. All uses changed.
2516 * src/setuidgid.c (main) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Don't call setgroups.
2517 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): New macro.
2518 Include <sys/statvfs.h> and use statvfs only if USE_STATVFS.
2519 (NAMEMAX_FORMAT): define a bit more clearly, now that the
2520 statvfs-using code is a bit more regular.
2521 * src/system.h (sync) [!HAVE_SYNC]: New macro.
2523 2006-04-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2525 * NEWS: csplit, nl, expr now conform to POSIX better, and are
2526 more-compatible with traditional Unix, with respect to regular
2528 * src/csplit.c (extract_regexp): Set re_syntax_options to a
2529 value that is compatible with what POSIX requires.
2530 * src/nl.c (build_type_arg): Likewise.
2531 * src/expr.c (docolon): Likewise. Also, don't let anchors match
2532 newline; this fixes an incompatibility with tradition and with POSIX.
2533 Don't warn about leading ^. POSIX says it is unspecified whether
2534 ^ is a special character, which means that implementations can
2535 either treat it as special or not, but either way a warning is not
2536 allowed (unless the regexp is otherwise invalid). Instead, anchor
2537 the expression but treat ^ as an anchor; this is the traditional
2538 behavior (e.g., Solaris 10).
2539 (eval4, eval3, eval2): Treat non-numeric args, division by zero,
2540 and the like as invalid expressions (exit status 2), not as
2541 failure of 'expr' (exit status 3). This is more consistent with
2542 how Solaris behaves.
2543 * tests/expr/basic (fail-a): Adjust exit status to match new expr
2544 behavior, for status 2 versus 3.
2546 (bre1, bre2, bre3, bre4, bre5, bre6, bre7, bre8, bre9, bre10):
2547 (bre11, bre12, bre13, bre14, bre15, bre16, bre17, bre18, bre19, bre20):
2548 (bre21, bre22, bre23, bre24, bre25, bre26, bre27, bre28, bre29, bre30):
2549 (bre31, bre32, bre33, bre34, bre35, bre36, bre37, bre38, bre39, bre40):
2550 (bre41, bre42, bre43, bre44, bre45, bre46, bre47, bre48, bre49, bre50):
2551 (bre51, bre52, bre53, bre54, bre55, bre56, bre57, bre58, bre59, bre60):
2552 (bre61, bre62): New tests.
2553 * tests/misc/csplit: Use \{...\} in test RE, to test that we're
2554 conforming to POSIX.
2557 * tests/du/long-from-unreachable: Solaris 8 sh doesn't understand
2558 "if !". Do not assume that 'sed' can handle long, newline-free input.
2559 * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. Evaluate expr once, not $n times.
2561 2006-04-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2563 Adjust to new regex.h API (with new fastmap type), and clean
2564 up the regex storage allocation a bit.
2566 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Put re_compiled member at the
2567 end, since it's large. Change regexpr member from char * to bool;
2568 all uses changed. Add new member fastmap.
2569 (extract_regexp): regexp arg is now char const *, not char *.
2570 Don't bother duplicating the regular expression; it's not needed.
2571 Set fastmap from new fastmap member. Don't bother allocating
2572 a buffer, as the regexp code does a better job than we do.
2573 * src/expr.c (docolon): Allocate and use a fastmap.
2574 Don't bother allocating a buffer.
2575 * src/nl.c (body_fastmap, header_fastmap, footer_fastmap):
2577 (build_type_arg): New fastmap arg. All uses changed.
2578 Don't bother allocating a buffer, but set a fastmap.
2579 * src/ptx.c (context_regex_string, word_regex_string): Remove.
2580 (context_regex, word_regex): New vars, replacing the above.
2582 (struct regex_data): New type.
2583 (compile_regex): Renamed from alloc_and_compile_regex, since
2584 we no longer allocate storage. Arg is now a struct regex_data *,
2585 not a const char *. All uses changed. Don't allocate the fastmap;
2586 instead, take it from the caller. Don't convert size_t to int,
2587 to avoid arithmetic overflow problems. Don't bother freeing
2588 storage afterwards; it's not worth the aggravation.
2589 * src/tac.c (compiled_separator_fastmap): New ver.
2590 (main): Use it. Don't bother allocating a buffer.
2592 2006-03-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2594 * src/dd.c (iwrite): Remove assignment without effect.
2595 Reported by Felix Rauch Valenti.
2597 2006-03-22 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2599 * src/ptx.c (usage): Remove mention of --copyright/-C.
2600 (main): Alias --copyright to --version plus a deprecation warning.
2601 * NEWS: Mention this.
2603 2006-03-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2605 * src/Makefile.am (uptime_LDADD): Add $(POW_LIB), for uptime's
2606 use of strtod. Tiny patch from Nickolai Zeldovich.
2608 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2610 * tests/misc/dirname: New file.
2611 * tests/basename/Makefile.am: Delete.
2612 * tests/basename/basic: Move to...
2613 * tests/misc/basename: ... this new file. Add some tests,
2614 including fixed behavior for //.
2615 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Sort. Add basename, dirname.
2616 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove basename.
2617 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove tests/basename.
2619 Improvements to dirname/basename handling on platforms like
2620 cygwin with distinct // and with drive letters.
2621 * NEWS: Document new behavior.
2622 * src/basename.c (main): Don't strip suffix from file system
2624 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Use new last_component.
2625 (ASSIGN_BASENAME_STRDUPA): Likewise. Reduce time spent
2626 traversing the string.
2627 * src/dircolors.c (guess_shell_syntax): Use new last_component.
2628 * src/install.c (target_directory_operand, install_file_in_dir):
2630 * src/ln.c (target_directory_operand, main): Likewise.
2631 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Likewise.
2632 * src/mv.c (target_directory_operand, movefile): Likewise.
2633 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Likewise.
2634 * src/shred.c (wipename): Likewise.
2635 * src/split.c (next_file_name): Likewise.
2636 * src/su.c (log_su, run_shell): Likewise.
2638 2006-03-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2640 * NEWS: nohup diagnostics are now more precise, and nohup now
2641 redirects stderr to nohup.out if stdout is closed and stderr is a tty.
2642 * src/nohup.c (main): Implement this.
2643 * tests/misc/nohup: Test the new behavior.
2645 2006-03-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2647 * src/copy.c (set_author): Rename function, from preserve_author.
2649 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use new macro,
2650 CYCLE_CHECK_REFLECT_CHDIR_UP, rather than open-coding it.
2652 * src/system.h (SAME_INODE): Remove definition.
2653 Include "same-inode.h", instead.
2655 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2657 * src/pwd.c (robust_getcwd): Prepend only one slash, not two.
2659 2006-03-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2661 Fix a bug whereby a user with write access to a directory being removed
2662 could cause the removal of that directory to fail with an erroneous
2663 diagnostic about a directory cycle. Reported by Vineet Chadha.
2665 * NEWS: Mention this.
2666 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): If the directory we're about to
2667 leave (and try to rmdir) is the one whose dev_ino is being used to
2668 detect a cycle, reset cycle_check_state.dev_ino to that of the parent.
2670 2006-03-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2672 * NEWS: Document dd's new 'directory' and 'nolinks' flags.
2673 * src/dd.c (set_fd_flags): Handle file-creation flags on file
2674 descriptors, rather than ignoring them.
2675 * tests/dd/misc: Add test cases for append, nofollow, directory,
2676 and nolinks flags. Simplify redirection to /dev/null in some cases.
2678 * tests/dd/misc: iflags->iflag. This fixes a typo that meant the
2679 noatime test never tested anything.
2681 2006-03-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2683 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): New flags directory, nolinks.
2684 * src/system.h (O_NOLINKS): Define to 0 if not already defined.
2686 * src/ls.c (usage): Mention that -f disables --color.
2687 Problem reported by Niels Möller.
2689 2006-03-03 Justin Pryzby <pryzbyj@justinpryzby.com>
2691 * man/*.x: Add references to syscalls from utilities of the same name.
2693 2006-03-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2695 * tests/help-version: Set SHELL, if not already set, in order to
2696 avoid failure when `make check' is run through debuild; dircolors
2697 would fail due to lack of $SHELL. Reported by Sven Joachim.
2699 Make `base64 --wrap=N' work for N=0, and for N larger than SIZE_MAX.
2700 * src/base64.c (wrap_write, do_encode, main): Change type of
2701 parameters and locals, wrap_column, form size_t to uintmax_t.
2702 (main): Adjust to use xstrtoumax, accordingly.
2704 2006-03-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2706 Don't fail when run from an environment with SHELL not a Bourne
2707 shell, e.g. `env SHELL=/bin/csh make check' would fail this test.
2708 * tests/dircolors/simple: Invoke each non-failing test with -b.
2709 Reported by Michael Stone.
2711 2006-02-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2713 * tests/misc/base64: Derive --decode-using tests from the
2716 * tests/misc/base64: Factor out a long constant string.
2717 Split lines to stay within 80 columns.
2719 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add base64.
2720 * tests/misc/base64: Test base64. From Simon Josefsson.
2722 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Use correct type for parameter,
2723 ignore_garbage: s/size_t/bool/.
2725 * src/base64.c: Don't include .h files already included by system.h:
2726 <string.h>, <stdlib.h>, <stdbool.h>, <limits.h>, <errno.h>.
2727 Include "system.h" before the other lib/*.h header files.
2728 Include <sys/types.h> before "system.h".
2729 (wrap_write): Remove declaration of unused local, initial_column.
2730 (wrap_write): Correct declaration syntax: s/size_t * V/size_t *V/.
2732 * README: Add base64 to the list.
2734 2006-02-17 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com>
2736 New program: base64.
2737 * AUTHORS: Mention base64.
2739 * man/Makefile.am: Build base64.1.
2740 * man/base64.x: New file.
2741 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add base64.
2742 * src/base64.c: New file.
2744 2006-02-25 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2746 In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible.
2747 * src/pwd.c (NOT_AN_INODE_NUMBER, D_INO): Move to ...
2748 * src/system.h: ... here, for use in ...
2749 * src/ls.c (main): ... here. Prefer dirent.d_ino to stat when
2751 (gobble_file): Add inode argument.
2752 (print_dir): Pass inode if available.
2753 (usage): Remove inaccuracy.
2755 2006-02-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2757 * TODO: Update/correct some obsolete entries.
2759 2006-02-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2761 * doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Mention `sort -k 1b,1'.
2762 * src/join.c (usage): Likewise.
2763 Documentation problem reported by Philip Kensche.
2765 2006-02-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2767 * man/rm.x: Update documentation to match previous patch.
2769 2006-02-18 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2771 New option for rm: --interactive=once (-I).
2772 * NEWS: Document it, along with change to rm --interactive.
2773 * TODO: Remove entry for implementing rm -I
2774 * src/rm.c (INTERACTIVE_OPTION): New enum value.
2775 (interactive_type): New enum.
2776 (long_opts): Let interactive take an optional argument.
2777 (interactive_args, interactive_types): New option arguments.
2778 (usage): Document -I, --interactive=WHEN. Use program_name
2779 instead of a basename.
2780 (main): New -I option, new behavior to --interactive.
2781 * tests/rm/interactive-once: New tests.
2782 * tests/rm/interactive-always: Ditto.
2783 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run them.
2785 2006-02-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2787 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): Make the regular
2788 expression match more of the target lines, e.g., those that start with
2789 `-S,' (short option followed by a comma) or that include `=[...]'.
2790 Patch by Nicolas François.
2791 Fix the four offenders thus exposed:
2792 * src/join.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
2793 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
2794 the derived man page properly.
2795 * src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.
2796 * src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise.
2797 * src/install.c (usage): Likewise.
2799 2006-02-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2801 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): For `make major', ensure that the
2802 version string is of the form N.N[.N]*, where N is one or more digits.
2804 2006-02-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2806 * INSTALL: Update from gnulib.
2808 2006-02-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2810 * GNUmakefile (all): Emit diagnostics to stderr, not stdout.
2812 2006-02-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2814 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): New target.
2815 (local-checks-available): Add to the list.
2817 2006-02-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2819 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: New file.
2820 * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add c99-to-c89.diff.
2822 * .x-po-check: New file, with exclusions so that `make distcheck'
2824 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-po-check.
2826 rm -r must remove an empty directory, even if it is inaccessible.
2827 * src/remove.c (close_preserve_errno): New function.
2828 (fd_to_subdirp): Don't print a diagnostic in this function.
2829 Do it from the callers instead, unless rmdir succeeds.
2830 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir): Adjust callers.
2831 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test for the above.
2832 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add empty-inacc.
2833 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
2834 * tests/rm/rm2: Adjust two expected diagnostics, now that they're
2835 a tiny bit less precise: cannot remove `a/1': ... instead of
2836 cannot open directory `a/1': ...
2838 * Makefile.maint (syntax-check-rules): Automatically derive this
2839 list of sc_-prefixed rule names.
2841 2006-02-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2843 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Don't assume cvsu is available.
2844 (CVS_LIST_EXCEPT): New macro, to simplify exception-processing.
2845 Most uses of CVS_LIST changed to use CVS_LIST_EXCEPT.
2846 (syntax-check-rules): Bring back sc_changelong. (Hmm, why did it
2847 go away? was that an accident?)
2848 (sc_cast_of_argument_to_free, sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value):
2849 (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value, sc_space_tab, sc_prohibit_atoi_atof):
2850 (sc_error_exit_success, sc_file_system, sc_no_if_have_config_h):
2851 (sc_system_h_headers, sc_sun_os_names, sc_trailing_blank):
2852 (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage, sc_unmarked_diagnostics):
2853 (sc_obsolete_symbols, sc_changelog, sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4):
2854 (sc_useless_cpp_parens, makefile-check, m4-check, po-check):
2855 (author_mark_check, makefile_path_separator_check):
2856 Output line numbers, to simplify navigation of Emacs *compilation*
2858 (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof, sc_file_system):
2859 Rework slightly so that Makefile.maint doesn't get reported as a
2860 violation of its own syntax rules.
2861 (sc_dd_max_sym_length): Use ifneq to do nothing, instead of doing
2862 it at run-time (which didn't work with Bison). Fix a makefile typo,
2863 caught by Makefile.maint itself: spaces where a tab should be.
2864 (po-check): Check lib/*.[ch] even if not in CVS; used by Bison,
2865 which copies from ../gnulib/lib/*.[ch] to lib/*.[ch].
2866 Ignore djgpp and man subdirectories, to avoid false matches with
2867 Bison and coreutils, respectively. Use sort -u to remove the
2868 resulting duplicates.
2869 * gnupload: Rework slightly to avoid bogus warning from
2870 sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
2872 2006-02-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2874 Use gzip's --rsyncable option only if it's available.
2875 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): New variable.
2878 2006-02-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2880 * Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Define in terms of
2881 the expansion, $(syntax-check-rules), rather than the single,
2882 top-level target `syntax-check', so that it's easier to exclude
2883 individual rules (via $(local-checks-to-skip)).
2884 (tgz-md5, tgz-sha1, ...): Remove now-unused definitions.
2886 2006-02-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2888 * src/system.h (!defined O_DIRECT): If O_DIRECTIO is defined (as it
2889 is on Tru64), define O_DIRECT to that. Patch From James Lemley.
2891 * tests/help-version (expected_failure_status_vdir):
2892 Redirect an expected disk-full diagnostic to /dev/null.
2894 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2896 * src/unexpand.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
2897 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
2898 the derived man page properly.
2899 * src/rm.c (usage): Likewise for --no-preserve-root.
2900 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
2901 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise.
2903 Add a rule to ensure that the above doesn't happen again.
2904 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): New rule.
2905 (syntax-check-rules): Add it.
2906 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: New empty file.
2907 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
2909 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2911 * src/cp.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate each
2912 option string from its description, so help2man formats the
2913 derived man page properly.
2914 * src/mv.c (usage): Likewise.
2915 Patch from Nicolas François in http://bugs.debian.org/351601.
2917 2006-02-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2919 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): cp -RL would fail when encountering
2920 the same directory more than once in the hierarchy beneath a single
2921 command-line argument. That is legitimate, e.g. when there are
2922 two or more symbolic links, each pointing to some directory that
2923 would not otherwise be copied. Reported by Christophe LYON.
2924 * tests/cp/cp-deref: New file. Test for today's fix.
2925 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-deref.
2926 * NEWS: Document this.
2928 2006-02-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2930 * configure.ac: Require automake-1.9.6, not 1.8.3.
2932 2006-02-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2934 * src/od.c (usage): Mention that -t a ignores high order bit.
2935 Documentation problem reported by Ed Avis.
2937 2006-02-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2939 * src/pwd.c (find_dir_entry): Remove unused local, `ent_sb_valid'.
2941 2006-01-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2943 * src/head.c (main): Use a better diagnostic when someone uses a
2944 trailing numeric option in an invalid way. Problem reported by
2946 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Likewise.
2948 2006-01-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2950 * man/wc.x: Include `count' keyword in man page synopsis,
2951 per suggestion from http://bugs.debian.org/181585.
2953 2006-01-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2955 * src/df.c (show_dev): If the file system claims to have
2956 more available than total blocks, report the number of used
2957 blocks as being total - available (a negative number) rather
2958 than as garbage. Problem reported by Toralf Foerster.
2960 2006-01-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2962 * src/tail.c (tail_forever): Don't exit-nonzero when an attempt
2963 to put a regular file in O_NONBLOCK mode fails with EPERM.
2964 That happens on Linux (up to 2.6.15) when using tail -f on a file with
2965 the append-only attribute. Reported by Dean Gaudet. For details,
2966 see http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15473.
2967 * NEWS: Mention this fix.
2968 * tests/tail-2/append-only: New file. Test for the above.
2969 * tests/tail-2/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add append-only.
2970 * tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Add tail-2/append-only
2972 2006-01-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2974 * NEWS: Mention fts-related improvements and bug fixes.
2976 2006-01-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2978 * tests/fmt/basic (pfx-1, pfx-2): New tests, to demonstrate the bug
2979 reported as http://bugs.debian.org/147577. Forwarded by Thomas Hood.
2981 2006-01-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2983 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-from-unreadable.
2985 2006-01-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2987 Now that fts no longer changes the current working directory, adjust
2988 its clients accordingly -- note that du.c uses fts but doesn't need
2989 any adjustment, since it doesn't operate on the actual files,
2990 but rather just uses the stat buffers provided by fts.
2992 * src/chown-core.c: Include "openat.h".
2993 Don't include "lchown.h".
2994 (restricted_chown): Accept a new parameter, CWD_FD, and use it in
2995 calling openat, lchownat, chownat, rather than open, lchown, chown.
2997 * src/chmod.c: Include "openat.h".
2998 (process_file): Use chmodat (fts->fts_cwd_fd,... in place of chmod (...
3000 * tests/du/long-from-unreadable: New test, to exercise one small
3003 2006-01-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3005 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add comments discouraging the
3006 addition of new directories under tests/.
3008 * tests/acl: Redirect stdin to /dev/null. Otherwise, FreeBSD 5.0's
3011 2006-01-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3013 * tests/du/long-sloop: Adjust not to hard-code the expected
3014 diagnostic corresponding to ELOOP. Solaris' diagnostic differs
3015 from that of GNU libc. Reported by Paul Eggert.
3017 * tests/du/long-sloop: Create file at end of symlink chain.
3019 * tests/misc/test: New file, with a test for one of the
3020 bugs fixed by yesterday's test.c changes.
3021 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add test.
3023 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3025 * tests/du/long-sloop: New file. Test for today's fts.c bug fix.
3026 That bug could make du -L, chgrp -L, or chown -L fail to diagnose
3027 a very long sequence of symbolic links (not necessarily a loop).
3028 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-sloop.
3030 2006-01-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3032 * src/test.c (test_syntax_error): Append a newline. All callers
3033 changed, except for the ones that didn't already append a newline.
3034 Bug reported by Eric Blake.
3036 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3038 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC): Now that verify_true is no longer
3039 void, cast its result to void, to avoid gcc's warning that
3040 ``left-hand operand of comma expression has no effect''.
3041 (DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE, X2REALLOC): Likewise.
3043 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3045 * tests/chmod/no-x: Add a test for today's fts.c fix.
3047 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change)
3049 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Use DTTOIF only if it's defined.
3050 This is necessary for Dragonfly. Patch by Joerg Sonnenberger.
3052 2006-01-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3054 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE):
3055 Use verify_true instead of verify_expr, to sync with gnulib.
3057 2006-01-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3059 * src/date.c (usage): Adjust the formatting of the entries for
3060 %::z and %:::z (separate with two spaces, not one) so that help2man
3061 formats them properly. Reported by Philip Rowlands.
3063 2006-01-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3065 * configure.ac (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Add.
3067 2006-01-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3069 * Makefile.maint (copyright-check): Use date +%Y in place of
3072 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove `static' attribute on local `status'.
3073 First off, the attribute should have been `volatile' (not static)
3074 to avoid longjmp-related risk of clobber. Secondly, now there is
3075 no longer any risk of a local variable being clobbered, so there's
3076 no need for any attribute at all.
3078 2006-01-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3080 * src/remove.c: Give a few functions the inline attribute.
3081 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use gotos to avoid some duplication.
3082 (AD_push): Rewrite an assertion so that the entire computation
3083 goes away when assertions are turned off.
3085 * src/tail.c (ENOSYS) [!defined ENOSYS]: Don't define here.
3086 It's already defined in "system.h".
3087 * Makefile.maint: Add a FIXME comment.
3089 2006-01-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3091 * ChangeLog: Remove entries from 2005-10-22 and earlier.
3092 * ChangeLog-2005: New file, for entries up to version 5.92.
3094 2006-01-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3096 * tests/du/no-x: Also allow a slightly different diagnostic -- the
3097 one you get when using openat-enabled fts.c and du (coming soon).
3098 * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise.
3099 * tests/chgrp/no-x: Likewise.
3101 * src/system.h (O_DIRECTORY) [!defined O_DIRECTORY]: Define.
3103 2006-01-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3105 * src/chown-core.c (RC_do_ordinary_chown): New enum value.
3106 (restricted_chown): Return it, if the file cannot be accessed due
3107 to EPERM, or if no uid or gid are required, or if the file is
3108 neither a directory nor a regular file. Rewrite to avoid gotos.
3109 (change_file_owner): Handle RC_do_ordinary_chown case.
3110 Rewrite to avoid gotos.
3111 * tests/chgrp/basic: Make sure we can change the group of
3114 * src/date.c (usage): Explain %g, %G, and %V a bit better.
3116 2006-01-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3118 * src/copy.c (set_owner): Correct a comment.
3120 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Change warning to say that --retry
3121 is useful `mainly' (not `only') when following by name.
3122 Reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/273781
3124 2006-01-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3126 * NEWS: Document that mkfifo and mknod -m no longer set special bits.
3127 * src/copy.c: Include lchmod.h.
3128 (copy_internal): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
3129 * src/cp.c: Include lchmod.h.
3130 (re_protect, make_dir_parents_private): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
3131 * src/mkdir.c: Include lchmod.h.
3132 (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
3133 (main): Use lchmod rather than chmod. Don't use lchmod unless the
3134 new mode contains bits outside the 777 range.
3135 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
3136 (main): If -m is given, don't invoke chmod; use umask 0 instead.
3137 Report an error if -m asks for bits outside the 777 range.
3138 * src/mknod.c (usage, main): Likewise.
3140 * src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: Undo 2005-12-19 changes.
3142 2005-12-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3144 * Makefile.maint (sc_obsolete_symbols): Prohibit use of O_NDELAY.
3145 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): New rule.
3146 (syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list.
3147 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: New empty file.
3148 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
3150 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Define in terms of $(srcdir).
3152 * cp.c, df.c, link.c, mknod.c, nice.c, sleep.c, unlink.c:
3153 Don't include <assert.h>; it wasn't used.
3155 2005-12-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3157 * src/chown-core.c (restricted_chown):
3158 Don't try O_WRONLY unless O_RDONLY failed wth EACCES.
3159 * src/remove.c (fd_to_subdirp): Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTY
3160 | O_NOFOLLOW too, for consistency with other dir-openers.
3161 Use POSIX-preferred O_NONBLOCK rather than O_NDELAY.
3162 (is_empty_dir): Likewise.
3163 * src/shred.c (wipename): Likewise. Don't bother trying to open
3164 dir for writing, since POSIX prohibits it.
3166 2005-12-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3168 * tests/help-version: Redirect stderr to /dev/full, to suppress
3169 write error diagnostic.
3171 2005-12-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3173 * src/mkdir.c, src/mknod.c, src/mkfifo.c (main)
3174 Avoid a minor race condition when `-m MODE' is specified, by using
3175 open, fchown, and close rather than just chown. To do that reliably --
3176 even with an overly restrictive umask -- ensure that each mkdir,
3177 mknod and mkfifo call uses a mode including at least owner-read access.
3178 * src/mknod.c (main): When `-m MODE' is specified, exit nonzero if
3179 the subsequent chown (or equivalent open,fchown,close) fails.
3180 * tests/misc/mknod: New tests.
3181 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mknod.
3183 2005-12-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3185 * src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Open with O_NDELAY, so we don't hang,
3186 e.g., on a named pipe.
3187 (OPEN_NO_FOLLOW_SYMLINK): Remove definition. Use O_NOFOLLOW in
3188 place of all uses, since it is guaranteed (system.h) to be defined.
3190 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>
3192 Add POSIX ACL support
3193 * src/ls.c: Switch back from HAVE_ACL to USE_ACL: The acl() syscall
3194 is no requirement for ACL support; particularly, it does not exist
3195 on systems that have POSIX ACLs.
3196 * src/copy.h (cp_option_init) [umask_kill]: Remove member.
3197 * src/cp.c (umask_kill): With default acls, the umask is not to be
3198 applied. Remove umask_kill, don't change the process umask, and let
3199 the kernel apply the umask where appropriate.
3200 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Fix logic for POSIX ACLs.
3201 * src/copy.c (get_dest_mode): Remove; it is obsolete after removing
3203 (copy_reg, copy_internal): Use copy_acl and set_acl
3204 instead of fchown/chown. Fix the logic for POSIX ACLs.
3205 (chown_succeded): Remove; we now always copy acls and
3206 preserve S_ISUID, S_ISGID, and S_ISVTX when needed, no matter if we
3207 did a chown before or not.
3208 * src/mv.c, src/install.c (cp_option_init): Don't set umask_kill member.
3209 * src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, vdir_LDADD, cp_LDADD,
3210 mv_LDADD, ginstall_LDADD): On systems with an ACL library, arrange
3211 to link with it via $(LIB_ACL), for the utilities that need it.
3213 2005-12-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3215 * src/remove.c (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__REQUIRE): Remove.
3216 (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__ALLOW_FAILURE): Likewise.
3217 (fd_to_subdirp): Remove openat_cwd_restore_allow_failure arg; its
3218 value is now signified by whether cwd_errno is null.
3219 (fd_to_subdirp, remove_dir, rm_1); Change cwd failure indicator from
3220 pointer-to-bool to pointer-to-errno-value. All callers changed.
3221 (rm_1): Don't bother setting a local cwd failure flag and then
3222 ORing it into the caller's. Just set the caller's.
3223 (rm): Use cwd failure errno value to print a slightly-better
3226 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3228 * src/stat.c (print_it): Properly handle a backslash at the
3229 end of a --printf format string. Reported by Paul Eggert.
3230 * tests/misc/stat-printf (end-bs): Add a test for the above.
3232 2005-12-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3234 * tests/acl: Port to pre-POSIX shells like Solaris 8 /bin/sh.
3235 Don't assume /etc/passwd contains user names; use 'id' instead.
3237 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3239 stat: revert behavior of --format=FMT (-c)
3240 stat: add new option: --printf=FMT
3241 * NEWS: Mention this.
3242 * src/stat.c (isodigit, octtobin, hextobin): Define.
3243 (PRINTF_OPTION): Define.
3244 (interpret_backslash_escapes, trailing_delim): New globals.
3245 (usage): Document them. Alphabetize on long option names.
3246 (print_esc_char): New function.
3247 (print_it): Rewrite, in order to handle backslash escapes.
3248 (main): Handle new option. Set globals for --format, too.
3250 * tests/misc/stat-printf: Test --printf and --format.
3251 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-printf.
3253 2005-12-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3255 * NEWS: sort now reports incompatible options.
3256 * src/sort.c (incompatible_options, check_ordering_compatibility):
3258 (main): Use them. Don't bother with a usage message for
3259 "sort -c a b", for consistency with other error diagnostics.
3260 * tests/sort/Test.pm (incompat1, incompat2, incompat3, incompat4):
3263 * src/cat.c (main): Undo previous change. close_stdout already
3264 does the check, so the previous change wasn't necessary.
3266 2005-12-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3268 * src/cat.c (main): Check for close (STDOUT_FILENO) failure.
3270 2005-12-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3272 Install a more-conservative approach for sort -R. It's the
3273 same basic idea as the existing code, except it uses the full ISAAC
3274 approach (called the "more kosher" approach in the existing comments).
3275 This makes "sort -R" quite a bit slower (about a factor of 2 on my
3276 little tests involving 10000 lines on a 2.4 GHz P4), but I think it's
3277 better to be conservative here at first, and review any performance
3278 improvements carefully.
3279 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add src/rand-isaac.c.
3280 * src/rand-isaac.h: Remove. All uses now simply include rand-isaac.c.
3281 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Remove rand-isaac.h.
3282 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): Remove.
3283 (EXTRA_DIST): Add rand-isaac.c.
3284 * src/rand-isaac.c: Revert to what used to be in shred.c, without
3285 changing it to allow for varying numbers of words in the state.
3286 Alter so that we include rand-isaac.c directly rather than
3287 compiling it and linking to it. Don't include config.h or
3288 system.h; that's the includer's responsibility.
3289 Omit functions that are specific to shred.
3290 (ISAAC_LOG, ISAAC_WORDS, ISAAC_BYTES, struct isaac_state, ind):
3291 (isaac_step, struct irand_state):
3292 Resurrect these, with the same defns that used to be in shred.c.
3293 (ISAAC_SIZE, isaac_new, isaac_copy): Remove.
3294 (isaac_refill, isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, irand_init, irand32):
3296 (struct isaac_state, isaac_refill, isaac_mix, isaac_init):
3297 (isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, isaac_seed_finish, isaac_seed):
3298 (irand_init, irand32, irand_mod):
3299 Number of words is constant again.
3300 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Move to shred.c.
3301 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.c rather than rand-isaac.h.
3302 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
3303 * src/shred.c (fillrand, dopass, main): Undo previous change.
3304 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Moved back here,
3306 * src/sort.c: Don't include md5.h; it wasn't needed.
3307 (struct keyfield): Rename random_hash to random, for consistency
3308 with the other member names. All uses changed.
3309 (usage): Tweak wording to mention STRING for --seed option.
3310 (short_options): Rorder for consistency with other programs.
3311 (rand_state): Now a struct, not a pointer to one. All uses changed.
3312 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): Remove.
3313 (get_hash): Remove comments around resbuf size, since we can assume C89.
3314 Use a "more-kosher" (but slower) approach of invoking isaac_refill.
3315 (keycompare): Adjust to the new get_hash.
3317 (badfieldspec): Omit recently-introduced comment; it isn't needed.
3318 (main): Don't set need_random simply because gkey has it set; that
3319 doesn't necessarily mean we'll need random numbers.
3320 Redo seeding to match new get_hash approach.
3322 2005-12-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3324 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add rand-isaac.h.
3326 Avoid shred segfault on 64-bit systems.
3327 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_refill): Don't try to negate a
3328 local of type uint32_t. Make the local an `int' instead.
3330 * NEWS: Mention sort's new options.
3332 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_mix): Declare to be static.
3333 Mark all other functions as `extern' so the tight-scope
3334 part of `make distcheck' passes once again.
3335 * src/rand-isaac.h (isaac_mix): Remove declaration.
3337 * src/sort.c (get_hash): Change position of `*' in parameter
3338 type to conform with convention.
3339 (main): Split a long line so it fits in 80 columns.
3340 (keycompare): Remove stray SPACE before TAB that was
3341 causing `make distcheck' to fail.
3343 * src/shred.c: Don't include gethrxtime.h. No longer needed.
3345 * tests/misc/sort-rand: New file: basic tests for the new options.
3346 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sort-rand.
3348 2005-12-10 Frederik Eaton <frederik@ofb.net>
3350 * src/Makefile.am (sort_LDADD): Add $(LIB_GETHRXTIME).
3351 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): New macros, so we compile rand-isaac.c.
3352 * src/rand-isaac.c: New file, containing ISAAC code that was in shred.c.
3353 Make state size runtime-configurable.
3354 (isaac_new, isaac_copy): New functions.
3355 * src/rand-isaac.h: New file.
3356 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.h. Move ISAAC code to rand-isaac.c.
3357 (fillrand, main): Adjust to the fact that the state size is now
3358 runtime-configurable.
3359 * src/sort.c (short_options, long_options, WORDS, keycompare, main):
3360 (usage): Add options --random-sort and --seed to implement a random
3362 Include md5.h and rand-isaac.h.
3363 (get_hash): New function.
3364 (rand_state): New var.
3365 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): New macros.
3367 2005-12-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3369 * tests/dd/misc: Add test for dd iflags=noatime.
3371 2005-12-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3373 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention white space vs -b and -t options.
3376 2005-12-09 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
3378 * src/test.c (main): Fix misleading comment.
3380 2005-12-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3382 * NEWS: Mention dd's new noatime flag.
3383 * src/system.h (O_NOATIME): Define to 0 if not already defined.
3384 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): Add support for noatime flag.
3386 2005-12-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

3389 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/cvsu.
3390 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use build-aux/cvsu, now that we
3391 distribute a copy of this script.
3392 * .x-sc_unmarked_diagnostics: Add build-aux/cvsu.
3394 * tests/mv/acl: exit-77 before the trap, not after, if we fail
3395 to create a temporary directory on another partition.
3396 From Andreas Gruenbacher.
3398 2005-12-06 Tomas Pospisek <tpo@sourcepole.ch> (tiny change)
3400 * man/basename.x: Cross-reference to dirname and readlink.
3401 * man/dirname.x: Cross-reference to basename and readlink.
3403 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher
3405 * src/copy.c [!HAVE_FCHOWN]: Define fchown(...) to -1.
3406 (set_owner, preserve_author): New functions, factored out of copy_reg.
3407 (copy_reg): Use them.
3408 (copy_internal): Use them here, too.
3410 2005-12-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3412 * src/sleep.c (usage): Say what happens with two or more arguments.
3413 Suggested by Justin Pryzby.
3415 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Move decl of `upsecs' into scope
3418 2005-12-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3420 * src/rm.c (long_opts): Change the name of each undocumented, for-
3421 testing-only option to start with `-', so that it cannot render
3422 ambiguous any prefix it happens to share with some other option name.
3423 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
3424 * src/head.c (long_options): Likewise.
3425 * src/tail.c (long_options): Likewise.
3427 * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: Update uses of undocumented, for-
3428 testing-only --presume* options to start with `---'.
3429 * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Likewise.
3430 * tests/rm/dir-no-w: Likewise.
3431 * tests/rm/isatty: Likewise.
3433 2005-11-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3435 * Makefile.maint: Add a comment about cvsu.
3437 2005-11-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3439 * NEWS: df updates for "none", "proc", inaccessible file systems.
3440 * src/df.c (show_point): Ignore inaccessible file systems.
3441 (usage): -a includes dummy file systems, not size-0 file systems.
3443 * src/od.c (unsigned_long_long_int): Renamed from ulonglong_t,
3444 to avoid collision with POSIX name space. All uses changed.
3446 2005-11-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3448 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add acl to the list.
3449 * tests/acl: Add `$0: ' prefix to diagnostics.
3451 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/buffer-lcm.c to the list.
3453 2005-11-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3455 * src/copy.c: Improve performance a bit by optimizing away
3456 unnecessary system calls and going to a block size of at least
3457 8192 (on normal hosts, anyway). This improved performance 5% on my
3458 Debian stable host (2.4.27 kernel, x86, copying from root
3459 ext3 file system to itself).
3460 Include "buffer-lcm.h".
3461 (copy_reg): Omit last argument. All callers changed.
3462 Use xmalloc to allocate rather than trusting alloca
3463 (which is unwise with large block sizes).
3464 Declare locals more locally, if possible.
3465 Use uintptr_t words instead of int words, for a bit more speed
3466 when looking for null blocks on 64-bit hosts.
3467 Optimize away reads of zero bytes on regular files.
3468 In the typical case, insist on 8 KiB buffers, at least.
3469 Avoid unnecessary extra call to fstat when checking for sparse files.
3470 Avoid now-unnecessary cast to off_t, and "0L".
3471 Avoid unnecessary test of *new_dst when checking for same owner
3474 2005-11-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3476 * src/remove.c (rm): Don't assume C99 for-loop syntax.
3478 2005-11-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3480 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Remove debugging cruft.
3482 * tests/rm/unread2 (rm): Change expected diagnostic,
3483 `cannot open directory' to `cannot remove', to align with
3485 * tests/rm/rm2: Ensure that rm now continues removing entries
3486 even after certain types of failure.
3488 * src/remove.c: Rewrite. Now, this module is reentrant on systems
3489 that provide openat (Solaris), and on systems like Linux+procfs
3490 where our openat emulation code is reentrant. This also fixes a
3491 few low-probability leaks and eliminates some code that could,
3492 in very unusual circumstances, cause rm() (via a callee) to exit.
3493 * NEWS: Mention this.
3495 * configure.ac: Put copyright dates all on one line so the
3496 emacs function that updates them works properly.
3498 2005-11-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3500 * configure.ac (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Add. Needed for CVS Automake.
3501 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
3502 (AC_PROG_CC_STDC): Use this instead of AC_PROG_CC, so that
3503 we get a standard-conforming compiler. This relies on the new
3504 m4/c.m4 file. Note that it's a bit tricky, since c.m4 doesn't
3505 define AC_PROG_CC_STDC; we are relying on Autoconf 2.59 internals.
3506 m4/c.m4 can go away with Autoconf 2.60 comes out.
3508 2005-11-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3510 * src/remove.c (AD_mark_helper): Make a `char *' parameter `const'.
3511 (AD_mark_current_as_unremovable): Likewise, but for a local.
3514 * tests/mv/acl: Let traps handle removing temporary directories.
3516 Expect acl-related tests to fail, until the corresponding
3517 patches are committed.
3518 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Add acl.
3519 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Likewise.
3521 ACL tests, from Andreas Gruenbacher.
3522 * tests/acl, tests/mv/acl, tests/cp/acl: New files.
3523 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acl.
3524 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acl.
3526 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Correct wording in comment.
3528 2005-11-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3530 * NEWS: Improve quality of ln's diagnostics.
3531 * src/ln.c (do_link, usage): Likewise.
3532 (do_link): Don't use alloca on a buffer of unbounded size.
3534 2005-11-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3536 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Accommodate HPUX. It appears to fail
3537 with EACCES rather than EPERM. Reported by Peter O'Gorman here:
3538 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/5766
3539 This also affects AIX 4.3.3, according to Ralf Wildenhues, in
3540 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html
3542 2005-11-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3544 * NEWS (sort): Mention consequences of today's mkstemp-safer.c fix.
3546 2005-11-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3548 * announce-gen: Accept new option, --gpg-key-id=ID and
3549 emit a blurb telling how to use the .sig files.
3550 * Makefile.cfg (gpg_key_ID): Define.
3551 * Makefile.maint (announcement): Use new option and key.
3553 Require that most .c files include <config.h>.
3554 * Makefile.maint (sc_require_config_h): New rule.
3555 (syntax-check-rules): Add it.
3556 * .x-sc_require_config_h: New file listing exceptions to the
3557 above rule. Some are legit, others are simply grandfathered in.
3558 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_require_config_h here, too.
3560 2005-11-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3562 * src/checksum.h, src/md5.c, src/sha1sum.c: Remove now-unused files.
3564 2005-11-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3566 * NEWS: Mention `readlink -f' bug fix in 5.3.0 news.
3567 Mention new readlink options in 5.3.0's `New features' section.
3568 Spotted by Thomas Hood.
3570 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3572 * NEWS: Merge in changes from b5_9x branch.
3574 2005-11-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3576 * NEWS: ls now defaults to --time-style='locale', which in turn acts
3577 like --time-style='posix-long-iso' if the locale settings are messed up.
3578 * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Implement this.
3580 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3582 * tests/du/2g: s/expensive/very expensive/ in a comment.
3585 2005-10-17 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
3587 * src/ls.c (usage): Fix descriptions of --sort, --time.
3588 Reported by Vitaly A. Ostanin.
3590 2005-11-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3592 * src/ln.c: Include filenamecat.c.
3593 (FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT): Remove.
3594 (do_link): Remove last arg DEST_IS_DIR. All callers changed.
3595 (main): Use file_name_concat, base_name, and strip_trailing_slashes
3596 instead of FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT. This simplifies the code, and avoids
3599 2005-11-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3601 * src/du.c (process_file): Don't overflow for files of size >= 2^31
3602 on systems with stat.st_blocks of a signed 32-bit type.
3603 This bug causes trouble on some AIX 5.1 systems.
3604 Report and trivial patch from Paul Townsend:
3605 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2005-11/msg00033.html>
3606 * NEWS: Mention this.
3608 * tests/du/2g: New (very-expensive) test for the above-fixed bug.
3609 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it here.
3610 * tests/very-expensive: New file.
3611 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it here.
3612 * tests/cp/perm: Mark this test as `very-expensive', too.
3614 2005-11-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3616 * NEWS: Mention that rm -d and maybe ln -d are scheduled for
3618 * src/remove.h (struct rm_options): Remove unlink_dirs. All uses
3620 * src/rm.c (usage): Don't mention rm -d.
3622 2005-11-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3624 * tests/dd/skip-seek: Fix typo in comment: s/fileutils/coreutils.
3625 From Andreas Schwab.
3627 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Redirect stderr to /dev/null so the
3628 `M+N records in/out' lines don't pollute `make check' output.
3630 * tests/dd/skip-seek (sk-seek4): New test, to exercise the bug
3631 fixed on 2005-10-31. This test uses the new, IN_PIPE specifier.
3632 * tests/Coreutils.pm: Accept a new type of input specifier: IN_PIPE,
3633 to indicate that the input file should be piped into the command
3634 under test (via `cat FILE | $prog ...').
3636 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Emit a better diagnostic when rm
3637 (without -r) fails to remove a directory on a non-Linux system.
3638 This change affects only newer Solaris systems (with priv_*
3639 functions like priv_allocset). Reported by Keith Thompson.
3641 * tests/rm/dir-nonrecur: New file/test for the above fix.
3642 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir-nonrecur.
3644 2005-11-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3646 * NEWS: "tail -c 2 FILE" and "touch 0101000000" now operate as
3647 POSIX 1002.1-2001 requires.
3648 * src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Implement this.
3649 Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre.
3650 * src/touch.c (main): Pass PDS_PRE_2000 to posixtime.
3651 * tests/tail/Test.pm (c-2, c-2-minus, c2, c2-minus): New tests.
3652 (test_vector): Add special cases for _POSIX2_VERSION, and
3653 regularize the old ones a bit.
3654 * tests/touch/obsolescent: Add y2000 test.
3656 2005-10-31 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3658 * src/dd.c (skip): Fix off-by-one error reported by
3659 Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
3661 2005-10-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3663 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Require that the test be run as non-root.
3664 Problem and trivial fix reported by Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
3666 2005-10-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3668 * src/ln.c (FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT): Omit unnecessary slashes in the
3669 boundary between DEST and SOURCE in the result.
3671 2005-10-26 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
3673 * src/md5sum.c (main) [!O_BINARY]: Changed default read mode
3674 back to text, to sync with documentation and for backwards
3677 2005-10-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3679 * tests/dircolors/simple (other-wr): Add an explicit test for
3680 the dircolors bug (NULL-dereference) fixed yesterday.
3682 2005-10-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3684 * src/tac.c (tac_file): When determining whether a file is seekable,
3685 also test whether it is a tty. Using only the lseek-based test would
3686 give a false positive on Solaris. Reported by Peter Fales.
3688 2005-10-24 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
3690 * tests/install/d-slashdot: New test, for "install -d" failure.
3691 * tests/install/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add d-slashdot.
3692 * tests/mkdir/p-slashdot: New test, for "mkdir -p" failure.

3698 Anonymous report and patch from
3699 http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=14849
3701 * src/dircolors.c: Add compile-time assertion that the slack_codes
3702 and ls_codes arrays have the same number of elements. This would
3703 have prevented the above-fixed bug.
3705 * src/expand.c (parse_tab_stops): Add a comment to make this function
3706 identical to the one in unexpand.c.
3707 * src/unexpand.c (parse_tab_stops): Adjust syntax to make this function
3708 identical to the one in expand.c.
3710 * src/expand.c (next_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin.
3712 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3714 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check, main): Use ptr_align rather than
3715 a dangerous pointer-value-to-`unsigned' cast.
3716 * NEWS: mention the new sha* programs.
3717 * AUTHORS: Add new sha* programs.
3719 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>
3721 Add new programs: sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum, sha512sum.
3722 * README: Add their names to the list.
3723 * src/md5sum.c: Provide framework for computing sha-2 hashes.
3724 * src/Makefile.am (sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum, sha512sum):
3725 Rules for compiling sha-2 utilities
3726 (noinst_HEADERS): Remove checksum.h.
3727 * man/sha512sum.x, man/sha384sum.x, man/sha256sum.x, man/sha224sum.x:

3730 (sha224sum.1, sha256sum.1, sha384sum.1, sha512sum.1): New dependencies.
3731 * tests/misc/sha224sum, tests/misc/sha256sum: New files.
3732 * tests/misc/sha384sum, tests/misc/sha512sum: New files.
3733 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add new sha224sum, sha256sum,
3734 sha384sum, sha512sum test scripts here rather that each in its
3737 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>
3739 * tests/sha1sum/basic-1 (million-a): Add the "million a's" test (one
3740 of the FIPS test vectors).
3742 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3744 * configure.ac: Use 6.0-cvs as the version string.
3745 * NEWS: Adjust accordingly.
