1 2006-10-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
3 * configure.ac: Avoid compiler warnings about default return
4 type in function definitions and unused variables in tests.
5 * src/who.c (print_user) [HAVE_UT_HOST]: hostlen is only needed
8 2006-10-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
10 * configure.ac: Reflect s/gl_MACROS/coreutils_MACROS/ renaming.
11 Call gl_INIT directly, rather than through the above.
13 2006-10-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
15 * bootstrap (symlink_to_gnulib): Fix bug: the dot_dots shell
16 variable was sometimes used without being initialized. This
17 messed up the installation of the INSTALL file in some cases.
19 2006-10-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
21 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct description of -s, --size.
22 It works even without -l. Suggestion from Karl Berry.
24 2006-10-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
26 * src/ls.c (quote_name): Use initializer rather than memset to
27 initialize an object to zero. This is easier to read and is less
28 likely to introduce a runtime error due to a mixup. It causes
29 gcc -W to issue a warning, but you can work around this by
30 appending -Wno-missing-field-initializers.
31 * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Likewise.
32 * src/shred.c (main): Likewise.
33 * src/stty.c (main): Likewise.
34 * src/tr.c (card_of_complement): Likewise.
35 * src/wc.c (wc): Likewise.
37 2006-10-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
39 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention again that sort fields are origin 1.
41 * NEWS: Fix typo: iso-8602 -> iso-8601. Problem reported by
44 * bootstrap (usage, main program, symlink_to_gnulib): Add option
45 --copy. Inspired by a suggestion from Bruno Haible.
47 2006-10-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
49 Avoid a compiler warning.
50 * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Initialize variable of type
51 mbstate_t via memset, rather than via '{0}'. Patch from Bruno Haible.
53 2006-10-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
55 Fix bug reported today by Mike Frysinger: mkdir -pv is logging the
56 wrong file name in some cases. Lars Wendler reported a bug in
58 * src/install.c (make_ancestor): New arg COMPONENT.
59 * src/mkdir.c (make_ancestor): Likewise.
60 * tests/install/basic-1: Check for install -Dv bug.
61 * tests/mkdir/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add p-v.
62 * tests/mkdir/p-v: New file, to test this bug.
64 2006-10-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
66 * src/chgrp.c: Don't include lchown.h; no longer needed.
67 * src/chown.c: Likewise.
69 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use a dynamic test to decide whether the
70 current file system has useful d_type info.
72 * src/dd.c (flags): noatime and nofollow now depend on
73 HAVE_WORKING_O_NOATIME and HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW, too.
74 (usage): Output info about noatime and nofollow only if
75 they are known to work.
76 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Inspect HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW rather
77 than O_NOFOLLOW, when testing whether it's possible to avoid a
78 race condition reliably.
80 2006-10-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
82 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets.
84 * tests/install/basic-1: Skip the latter part of this test if the
85 just-built dd binary is not readable. Otherwise, this test would fail
86 when binaries were created as root. Reported by Bauke Jan Douma in
87 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/8433>.
89 2006-10-03 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
91 * src/system.h (ST_BLKSIZE): Ceiling at SIZE_MAX / 8 + 1, not at 4
92 MiB, since XFS hosts can legitimately have large values of
93 st_blksize. Problem reported by Tony Ernst in
94 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17903>.
96 2006-10-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
98 * src/remove.c (nonexistent_file_errno): Remove ENAMETOOLONG.
99 Paul Eggert pointed out that the specified file may exist,
100 in spite of such an errno value.
101 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove ignore-name-too-long.
102 * tests/rm/ignore-name-too-long: Remove file.
103 * NEWS: Update here, too.
105 2006-10-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
107 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Report failure also if rm is terminated by
110 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Convert two c99'isms -- one in remove.c
111 and one in shred.c -- that were added before coreutils-6.3.
112 Reported by Michael Deutschmann.
114 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to reflect new offsets.
116 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): With -f, exit successfully in spite
117 of a missing file under some very unusual conditions (with errno
118 being any of ENOENT, ENOTDIR, ENAMETOOLONG).
120 With --force (-f), rm no longer fails for ENOTDIR.
121 * src/remove.c (ignorable_missing): New function.
122 Use it everywhere, rather than open-coding the test.
123 Andreas Schwab reported the ENOTDIR problem.
124 (ignorable_missing): Similarly, don't fail for ENAMETOOLONG.
126 * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
127 * tests/rm/ignorable: New file. Test for the ENOTDIR case.
128 * tests/rm/ignore-name-too-long: New file. Test for ENAMETOOLONG.
129 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add the new file names.
131 * bootstrap: Undo last change to this file, since now gnulib-tool
132 sticks with the automake default in generating dependencies.
134 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.4-cvs.
135 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.4 and add "-cvs" suffix.
137 2006-09-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
140 * NEWS: Record the 6.3 release date.
141 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
143 * NEWS: Mention Paul's Solaris 8 vs. 10 work-around.
145 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update offsets.
147 2006-09-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
149 * tests/rm/readdir-bug: Don't use $(...) in a shell script,
150 as it doesn't work with Solaris /bin/sh.
152 2006-09-29 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
154 * NEWS: Mention Paul's fix (to gnulib's canon-host.c) for
157 * tests/seq/basic [neg-2, eq-wid-2]: Comment out tests that
158 use .1 as the increment. Actual output varies too much.
159 [eq-wid-3]: New, commented out test.
161 * src/shuf.c (read_input): Fix an off-by-one error that
162 would cause an infloop for piped input of 8KB or more.
163 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
164 * tests/misc/shuf: Test for the above fix.
166 Since any system may be affected by the Darwin readdir bug,
167 perform the extra rewinddir unconditionally. The performance
168 impact of rewinding a directory is negligible.
169 * src/remove.c (NEED_REWIND): Define to use
170 CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD unconditionally.
172 * tests/seq/basic: Use .11 as the upper bound, in case the ".1"
173 increment translates to a slightly larger value.
174 This corrects a test failure on FreeBSD 6.1 reported by Nelson Beebe.
175 The final expected value wasn't being printed.
177 Work around a readdir bug in Darwin 7.9.0 (MacOS X 10.3.9) on HFS+
178 and NFS, whereby rm would not remove all files in a directory.
179 * src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Reduce to 10.
180 (NEED_REWIND): New macro, so that we incur the cost of the work-around
181 rewinddir only on afflicted systems.
182 * NEWS: Clarify and correct.
183 * tests/rm/readdir-bug: New file. Test for the above fix.
184 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
185 Prompted by testing and analysis from Bruno Haible:
186 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-09/msg00326.html
188 2006-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
190 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Unset BASH_ENV, CDPATH, and ENV, too;
191 suggested for Debian stable, which uses Perl 5.8.4.
193 2006-09-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
195 Automatically generated dependencies are important even
196 when all of the sources in a directory come from gnulib.
197 * bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Remove the "no-dependencies" automake
198 option that gnulib-tool adds to what becomes our lib/gnulib.mk.
200 * tests/rm/fail-eperm: Enable Perl's (-T) taint checking.
201 Ensure that IFS is set properly and unset PATH.
203 Work properly even when the name of the selected file starts with "-".
204 Invoke rm via "../../src/rm", and adjust expected output.
205 Prompted by a patch from Tim Waugh.
207 * README-cvs: Add Bison to the list of required packages.
209 2006-09-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
211 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update offsets.
213 * NEWS: rm works around a bug in Darwin 8.6.1 w/NFS that kept
214 it from removing a directory containing 188 or more entries.
215 * src/remove.c (CONSECUTIVE_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): Decrease by
216 20, go work around the buggy readdir on Darwin 8.6.1 with NFS.
217 Reported by Matthew Woehlke.
219 2006-09-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
221 * NEWS: "groups user" no longer outputs "user :"; you need at least
222 two users. "groups" now processes options like --help more compatibly.
223 * src/groups.sh: Implement the option-processing change.
224 Handle user and group names with special characters more robustly.
225 Report write errors instead of exiting silently with status 1.
227 2006-09-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
229 * README: Warn not to run autoreconf manually. Use bootstrap instead.
231 * src/groups.sh: When invoked with 0 or 1 argument, just exec "id".
232 Rewrite to avoid using temporary, $status.
234 * NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
235 * src/groups.sh: Don't hide a write failure.
236 Reported by Iain Calder <ic56@rogers.com>.
238 2006-09-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
240 * src/chown.c (usage): Clarify --dereference description.
241 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise. Suggestion from Jamie McClelland.
243 2006-09-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
245 * NEWS: Mention these fixes.
246 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): With --verbose (-v), print
247 "removed `file_name'" just after unlinking a file.
248 (copy_internal): Likewise, in three more places.
249 Marc Lehman reported that "touch x; ln x y; mv -v x y" was silent.
250 * tests/mv/hard-verbose: New file. Test for the above fix.
251 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add hard-verbose.
253 * tests/help-version (sync_args): Don't call sync, since it spins up
254 disks that I've deliberately caused to spin down (but not unmounted).
256 * NEWS: Mention the improvement to sort.
258 * tests/tail-2/proc-ksyms: Require that /proc/ksyms be readable
261 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Don't use tmpfs on linux-2.4 or older,
262 since that predated addition of d_type support.
264 2006-09-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
266 * gl/modules/getloadavg.diff: New file. Work around the way the latest
267 version of the getloadavg module interacts with our bootstrap script.
268 * bootstrap (gnulib_tool_options): Add "--local-dir gl".
269 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Sort file names.
270 Add bootstrap and gl/modules/getloadavg.diff
272 2006-09-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
274 * bootstrap: Add support for --force.
275 (usage): New function. Describe usage less tersely.
276 (CVS_only_file): New var.
278 * NEWS: Document fix for cp -i and mv -i.
279 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): With -i, prompt even if the source
280 is a directory and the destination is not. This is required by
281 POSIX and gives the user a chance to bail out before failing.
282 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-i.
283 * tests/cp/cp-i: New file.
284 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add i-5.
285 * tests/mv/i-5: New file.
287 2006-09-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
289 * NEWS: Mention the chmod bug fix.
291 * tests/chmod/inaccessible: New test, specifically for this bug.
292 Based on a test case from Paul Eggert.
293 * tests/chmod/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add inaccessible.
295 Fix the 2006-09-18 bug differently.
296 * src/chmod.c: (process_file): Upon FTS_NS for a top-level file,
297 tell fts_read to stat the file again, in case it has become
298 accessible since the initial fts_open call.
299 * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Likewise.
301 * src/chmod.c: Revert last change. There is a better way.
302 * src/chown-core.c: Likewise.
304 2006-09-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
306 * src/ln.c (target_directory_operand): Rewrite to avoid porting
307 problem on Tandem reported by Matthew Woehlke in
308 <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17172>.
310 2006-09-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
312 Fix bug where chmod, chown, and chgrp did not process operands
313 left-to-right in some cases.
314 * src/chmod.c (wd_errno): New var.
315 (chmod_file): New function, with most of the contents of the
316 old prcess_file function.
317 (process_files): Use it. This gives file names to fts one
318 at a time, so that they are processed left-to-right as POSIX
320 * src/chown-core.c (wd_errno, chown_files): Likewise.
321 (chown_file): New function.
322 * tests/install/basic-1: Redo test so as to not workaround
323 the chmod bug, thereby testing for it.
325 * src/shuf.c (main): Quote the entire range when reporting an
326 invalid one, rather than just the part that contained the error.
328 * tests/stty/row-col-1: Rewrite to avoid temporary file that is
329 sometimes left behind if the test is skipped or interrupted.
331 * bootstrap (symlink_to_gnulib): New function.
332 (cp_mark_as_generated): Use it, to prefer symlinks-to-gnulib
334 (cp_mark_as_generated, slurp, gnulib_files):
335 Avoid making a copy if it's the same as the old version.
336 (gnulib_files): Add support for this variable (used by Bison).
338 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Fix quoting problem in diagnostic
339 indicating flaw in kernel. Reword to say that the flaw isn't
340 serious for coreutils, since the flaw does affect ls -i.
342 * tests/chgrp/basic: Fix bug in test case exposed by building on
343 Solaris 8 in a setgid directory. The test case incorrectly
344 assumed that 'symlink' would be in group $g1.
346 2006-09-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
348 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.3-cvs.
349 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.3 and add "-cvs" suffix.
352 * NEWS: Record the 6.2 release date.
353 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
355 2006-09-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
357 * tests/chgrp/basic: On an OpenBSD system, rather than failing
358 due to a known problem, merely warn about it.
359 Rewrite to avoid testing output of chgrp --verbose and chgrp -c.
360 Instead, use stat to test file system for desired results, directly.
361 * tests/chgrp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set host_triplet.
363 * tests/envvar-check: Add more variable names to the list of those
364 that can affect these programs and tests: _POSIX2_VERSION, COLUMNS,
365 QUOTING_STYLE, TABSIZE, TERM, TMPDIR.
367 2006-09-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
369 * NEWS: Document that mkdir -p and install -d now fork on occasion.
370 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add savewd.
371 * src/install.c: Include savewd.h.
372 (process_dir): New function.
373 (main, install_file_in_file_parents): Use it, along with the new
374 savewd module, to avoid some race conditions.
375 * src/mkdir.c: Include savewd.h.
376 (struct mkdir_options): New members make_ancestor_function, mode,
378 (make_ancestor): Return 1 if the resulting directory is not readable.
379 (process_dir): New function.
380 (main): Use it, along with new savewd module, to avoid some
381 race conditions. Fill in new slots of struct mkdir_options, so
382 that callees get the values.
383 * tests/install/basic-1: Test for coreutils 5.97 bug that was
384 fixed in coreutils 6.0, and which should still be fixed with
386 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Likewise.
388 2006-09-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
390 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add rename-dest-slash.
391 The 2006-09-08 changes made it so "mv dir new-name/" would
392 fail on NetBSD 1.6. This makes it work once again.
394 2006-09-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
396 * src/mv.c (main): Remove unnecessary (always-true) test for 2 <= n.
397 Instead, since it's a little fragile, assert the condition.
398 (target_directory_operand): Update comment to reflect latest change.
400 2006-09-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
402 * src/who.c (print_user): Rewrite to avoid warning from
403 GCC 4.1.1 with -Wall.
405 2006-09-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
407 * tests/mv/atomic: Check for specific strace output, rather than
408 simply nonempty. RHEL AS 4 would fail this test due to strace
409 generating "[ Process PID=14434 runs in 32 bit mode. ]".
410 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
412 2006-09-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
414 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Move new cache_stat_init call onto
416 (rm_1): Move declaration of "st" and new cache_stat_init call
417 "down" to nearer where they're used.
418 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add another set of curly braces.
420 2006-09-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
422 * src/expr.c (eval6): Fix buffer overrun, or bad performance, if
423 substr's last operand is very large. Performance problem reported
426 2006-09-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
428 * Makefile.maint (sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4): Don't hang when there
430 (sc_require_config_h): Skip this test if there are no version-
432 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): Likewise.
434 2006-09-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
436 * bootstrap: Export CVS_RSH separate from its assignment, to work
437 even with Solaris 10's /bin/sh. Suggestion from Mark D. Baushke.
439 2006-09-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
441 * NEWS: tail now ignores the -f option if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set,
442 no file operand is given, and standard input is any FIFO.
443 This is in response to Open Group XCU ERN 114.
444 * src/tail.c (main): Likewise.
446 2006-09-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
448 mv and "cp -r" no longer fail when invoked with two arguments
449 where the first one names a directory and the second name ends in
450 a slash and doesn't exist. E.g., "mv dir B/", for nonexistent B,
451 now succeeds, once more. This reverts part of the 2004-06-27
453 * NEWS: Say the above.
454 * src/mv.c (target_directory_operand): Don't require (here)
455 that the target operand "look like" a directory. This change
456 pushes the test down to the rename syscall level, where a
457 "mv dir existing-non-dir/" will mistakenly succeed on older systems
458 that ignore trailing slashes in the rename destination argument.
459 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Likewise, but for cp.
460 * tests/mv/trailing-slash: Exercise the above fixes.
461 * tests/cp/trailing-slash: New file.
462 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add trailing-slash.
464 * bootstrap: Use the previously unused variable, $src,
465 to avoid repeating "$GNULIB_SRCDIR/$file".
467 * bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): Don't use "local", to
468 accommodate ancient "/bin/sh". Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
469 Rename now-global "$src" and "$dst" to have cp_ prefix.
470 Safer, and avoids confusion.
472 * bootstrap (cp_mark_as_generated): New function.
473 (slurp): Use it to prepend editor hints and a warning that
474 the file we're copying is generated.
475 Suggestion from Bruce Korb.
476 (cp_mark_as_generated): Don't add C-style comments for .l or .y files.
477 Fix last-minute typo.
479 2006-09-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
481 * bootstrap: Revert last change. There are less disruptive ways
482 to mark these generated files as read-only.
484 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Update to have proper offsets.
486 2006-09-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
488 Ensure that some gnulib-tool-generated files are read-only.
489 * bootstrap (slurp): Put the body of this function in a sub-shell,
490 with "umask a-w" so that all new files are read-only. Remove each
491 file before we write to it, in case it's read-only.
492 Make po/Makevars and runtime-po/Makevars read-only, too.
494 2006-09-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
496 * tests/cp/acl: Skip this test when cp lacks ACL support.
497 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set $(CONFIG_HEADER).
499 * src/c99-to-c89.diff (remove.c): Adapt one hunk to match the new
500 context from change of 2006-09-02.
502 2006-09-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
504 * README-cvs: Fix typo in update command.
506 2006-09-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
508 * NEWS: Tweak the wording in the new change description so that
509 no one can think this change causes e.g., `rm -fr foo../' to fail.
511 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Adjust for movement of config.h to lib/.
512 Use $CONFIG_HEADER, rather than hard-coding it.
513 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set $CONFIG_HEADER.
515 2006-09-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
517 * NEWS: rm now rejects attempts to remove /, ./, and ../.
518 * src/basename.c: Don't include dirname.h, since system.h does it now.
519 * src/chmod.c: Likewise.
520 * src/copy.c: Likewise.

534 * src/shred.c: Likewise.
535 * src/split.c: Likewise.
536 * src/su.c: Likewise.
537 * src/system.h: Include "dirname.h", since dot_or_dotdot needs it
539 (dot_or_dotdot): Succeed even if "." or ".." is followed by a
541 * src/rm.c (usage, main): --preserve-root is now the default.
542 * src/remove.h: Fix comment.
543 * src/remove.c (cache_fstatat, cache_stat_init): New functions.
544 (cache_statted, cache_stat_ok): New functions.
545 (write_protected_non_symlink): Remove struct stat ** buf_p arg,
546 which is no longer needed with the new functions. All callers
548 (prompt, is_dir_lstat, remove_entry, remove_dir):
549 New struct stat * arg. All callers changed.
550 (write_protected_non_symlink, prompt, is_dir_lstat, remove_entry):
551 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir, rm_1):
552 Use and maintain the file status cache.
553 (prompt, remove_entry): Omit the first "directory" in the diagnostic
554 "Cannot remove directory `foo': is a directory". This causes "rm"
555 to pass a test case that it would otherwise fail now that it
556 "knows" more about its argument. I think the diagnostic is better
557 without the first "directory" anyway.
558 (prompt): Remove the no-longer-needed IS_DIR arg; all callers changed.
559 (rm_1): Reject attempts to remove /, ./, or ../.
560 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add r-4.
561 * tests/rm/r-4: New file.
563 2006-09-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
565 * src/stat.c: Include <stddef.h>
566 (alignof): New macro.
567 (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID___VAL, HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_VAL):
569 (STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_IS_INTEGER): New macro.
571 (print_statfs): If f_fsid isn't an integer, grab its words one
572 at a time in little-endian order. This is a bit easier to configure
573 and should avoid a compilation failure on MacOS reported by Bruno
576 2006-08-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
578 * src/stat.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID_VAL, FSID_VAL): New macros, to
579 work around a Mac OS X porting problem reported by Bruno Haible in
580 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00308.html>.
581 (print_statfs): Use them.
583 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add isapipe.
584 * src/tail.c: Include isapipe.h.
585 (IS_PIPE_LIKE_FILE_TYPE): Remove.
586 (IS_TAILABLE_FILE_TYPE): Just list both FIFOs and sockets as
587 tailable, since this seems to be portable.
588 (main): Use isapipe, to fix a bug on MacOS X reported by Bruno Haible in
589 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00304.html>.
591 * src/system.h (LOCALEDIR): Remove, since configmake.h now defines
594 2006-08-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
596 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't test whether macros like
597 S_ISLNK are defined, since they're always defined now.

599 * src/ln.c (main): Likewise.
600 * src/ls.c (get_link_name, make_link_name): Likewise.

602 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Likewise.
603 * src/who.c (S_IWGRP): Likewise.
605 Adjust to recent gnulib changes for the gnulib module.
606 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fcntl.
607 * src/system.h (SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END): Remove. Other code
608 is already assuming these macros are defined.
609 (O_DIRECT, O_DIRECTORY, O_DSYNC, O_NDELAY, O_NOATIME, O_NONBLOCK):
610 (O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_NOLINKS, O_RSYNC, O_SYNC, O_BINARY, O_TEXT):
611 Remove; the fcntl module now handles these.
613 Adjust to recent gnulib changes for the inttypes module.
614 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove stdint; add inttypes.
615 (excluded_files): Don't exclude m4/inttypes-h.m4 or m4/inttypes-pri.m4.
617 * src/system.h: Don't bother to include <stdint.h>, since we can
618 now assume inttypes.h does the equivalent of including stdint.h.
620 2006-08-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
622 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't make a backup if the last
623 component of the source name is "." or "..".
624 Reported by Andreas Schwab in http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17540.
625 * NEWS: Mention this.
626 * tests/cp/src-base-dot: New file. Test for the above fix.
627 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add src-base-dot.
629 * src/system.h (DOT_OR_DOTDOT): Remove macro. Rewrite as a...
630 (dot_or_dotdot): ...new static inline function.
631 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Reflect this renaming.
632 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Likewise.
634 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Add comments.
636 2006-08-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
638 * src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove -I$(srcdir) and -I../lib,
639 since Automake supplies them for us. It always did -I$(srcdir),
640 and with the recent change to AC_CONFIG_HEADERS in configure.ac it
641 is now also doing -I../lib.
643 * bootstrap (get_translations): Skip this if WGET_COMMAND is empty.
644 Fail if the first "echo" fails. Suppress diagnostics from "ls po/*.po"
645 since there might not be any .po files.
646 (WGET_COMMAND): Set to empty if wget doesn't
647 seem to be available.
649 2006-08-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
651 This test was failing in some environments.
652 * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: Don't rely on eval "`dircolors -b`"
653 to set LS_COLORS in the environment.
654 * tests/envvar-check: Instead, ensure that LS_COLORS is not set.
655 Reported by Bob Proulx.
657 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove hunk for copy.c; no longer needed.
659 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove these files here, too:
660 .x-sc_no_if_have_config_h, .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use,
661 .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
663 Fix "mv --verbose --backup" so its output includes the
664 " (backup: foo.~1~)" suffix also when backing up a directory.
665 * NEWS: Report this bug fix.
666 * src/copy.c (emit_verbose): New function, factored out of...
667 (copy_internal): ...here. Use the new function.
668 * tests/mv/backup-dir: Test for the above fix.
669 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add backup-dir.
671 2006-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
673 * .x-sc_no_if_have_config_h: Remove; no longer needed.
674 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: Remove; it was empty.
675 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: Likewise.
676 * Makefile.maint (sc_no_have_config_h): Renamed from
677 sc_no_if_have_config_h, since it now checks that HAVE_CONFIG_H
678 is absent everywhere.
679 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add config-h.
680 * src/shred.c: Include <config.h> unconditionally, since
681 we now assume config.h exists.
682 * src/dircolors.c: Likewise.
684 2006-08-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
686 "ls --color" would highlight other-writable and sticky directories
687 no differently than regular directories on a file system with
688 dirent.d_type support.
689 * NEWS: Say the above.
690 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): With --color, also stat the file when
691 we know it is a directory.
692 Derived from an anonymous one-line fix and bug report:
693 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?15043>.
694 * tests/ls/color-dtype-dir: New file. Test for the above fix.
695 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add color-dtype-dir.
697 2006-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
699 * .cvsignore: Remove stamp-h1. Add coreutils-*, to ignore
701 * bootstrap.conf: Add configmake, verify.
702 * src/.cvsignore: Remove localedir.h.
703 * src/Makefile.am (localedir, DISTCLEANFILES, localedir.h): Remove;
704 subsumed by configmake.
705 * src/system.h: Include configmake.h rather than localedir.h
706 (LOCALEDIR): New macro.
708 Rewrite to avoid some unnecessary casts, macros, literals.
709 * src/shred.c (DEFAULT_PASSES, VERBOSE_UPDATE): Now constants,
711 (SECTOR_SIZE, SECTOR_MASK): New constants.
712 (fillpattern, dopass, do_wipefd, main): Remove unnecessary casts,
713 and use the SECTOR_* constants when applicable. Check for size <
714 0 rather than size == -1, since negative-size files are a sign of
717 2006-08-25 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
719 * src/shred.c (dopass): Assume a continuable error if EIO even
720 if the current position is not a multiple of 512.
722 2006-08-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
724 * src/stat.c (print_statfs): Fix typo: remove extra "sizeof".
726 2006-08-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
728 * src/stat.c (HAVE_STRUCT_STATXFS_F_FSID___VAL): Define. This
729 macro was being used without being defined.
730 (SB_F_NAMEMAX): Remove cast.
731 (f_fsid) [BeOS]: Likewise.
732 (OUT_NAMEMAX): Renamed from NAMEMAX_FORMAT, with a new meaning.
734 (out_string, out_int, out_uint, out_uint_o, out_uint_x): New
736 (xstrcat): Remove. All uses changed to use the above functions.
737 (print_statfs, print_stat): 2nd arg is now the prefix len, not the
738 buffer len. All uses changed. Output '?', not '*', for unknown
739 data or errors. Do not assume signed values can be interchanged
740 with unsigned when printing.
741 (print_statfs): For %i, print the fsid as a single int, not as a
743 (print_it): Quote invalid format better.
745 * NEWS: printf supports the I flag.
746 * src/printf.c (print_formatted) [glibc 2.2 or later]: Likewise.
748 2006-08-23 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
750 * src/stat.c (STRUCT_STATVFS, statfs, f_fsid, f_blocks, f_bfree) [BeOS]:
751 (f_bavail, f_bsize, STATFS_FRSIZE, f_files, f_ffree) [BeOS]:
752 (STATXFS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_MEMBER_NAME) [BeOS]: Define.
754 * src/ls.c (SA_RESTART): Fallback define.
756 2006-08-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
758 * src/system.h (EDQUOT): Define if not already defined.
759 Problem reported by Bruno Haible for BeOS.
761 * .cvsignore: Remove config.h, config.hin, as they are now
763 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_HEADERS): Move config.h and config.hin
765 * src/Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Remove '-I..'; no longer needed.
767 * bootstrap (slurp): Define gl_LOCK_EARLY instead of gl_LOCK,
768 to accommodate today's gnulib change.
770 2006-08-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
772 * NEWS: Mention the sweeping infrastructure changes.
774 2006-08-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
776 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnupload.
777 * Makefile.maint (emit_upload_commands): gnupload is now
779 * gnupload: Remove from CVS, since it's now a gnulib module.
781 * bootstrap (bootstrap_conf_cleanup): Remove.
782 (excluded_files): New var.
783 * bootstrap.conf: Likewise.
784 * bootstrap (slurp): Exclude files early if they're in the
785 excluded_files list. That way, their names don't get put into
788 * aclocal.m4, config.hin, configure:
789 Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically.
790 * .cvsignore: Add INSTALL, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, config.hin,
791 configure, *.cache, *.lineno, *.log.
792 Remove more-specific entries. This catches files like configure.lineno.
793 * man/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in.
794 * src/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in.
795 Remove .version, dir.c, install, mvdir, stamp-v, vdir.c, version.c.

841 Add Makefile.in. Sort entries if necessary. Remove *.I, *.E,
842 *.X, *.O, *-tests, build-script, mk-script if they're never
843 created in this directory.
845 2006-08-22 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
848 * src/uptime.c: Include OS.h if it exists.
849 (print_uptime): On BeOS, use the get_system_info function (actually a
850 macro). Loop through utmp entries only if utmp.h or utmpx.h exists.
851 (uptime): Call read_utmp only if utmp.h or utmpx.h exists.
853 2006-08-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
855 * .cvsignore: Add ABOUT-NLS.
857 Move the check-AUTHORS rule to be run as part of "make distcheck",
858 rather than "make check".
859 * src/Makefile.am (check): Don't depend on check-AUTHORS; it would
860 cause "make check" to fail on systems unable to build all binaries.
861 * Makefile.maint (check-AUTHORS): New rule.
862 (local-checks-available): Add it here.
863 Reported by Bruno Haible. Needed for BeOS.
865 2006-08-21 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
867 * src/df.c (print_header, show_dev): Use a column width that
868 depends on the block size of -P is specified and not autoscaling.
869 Problem reported by Gustavo G. Rondina in:
870 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-08/msg00164.html
872 2006-08-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
874 * tests/dircolors/simple (a): Don't fail with an unexpected diagnostic
875 when the shell variable, SHELL, is not set.
876 Trigger the failure with "(unset SHELL; make check TESTS=simple)".
877 Reported by Sven Joachim in <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>.
879 * src/od.c: Now that HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG is no longer defined
880 in config.h, change the uses to HAVE_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG_INT.
881 Otherwise, on a system with 4-byte longs, "od -t u8" fails with this:
882 od: invalid type string `u8';
883 this system doesn't provide a 8-byte integral type
884 FIXME: add a test for this, but skip it when sizeof uintmax < 8.
886 2006-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
888 Add a bootstrap procedure, so that the CVS version contains fewer
889 files and we bootstrap the rest from gnulib, gettext, etc.
890 * README-cvs: New file.
891 * bootstrap: New file.
892 * bootstrap.conf: New file.
893 * .x-sc_trailing_blank: Remove config-log, .gdb-history. Add .po.
894 * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Move here from m4/*.m4, for benefit
896 (gl_DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION, gl_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS, gl_PERL):
897 (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Remove; now done by gnulib.
899 (gl_MACROS): Call just after gl_EARLY, just for clarity.
900 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Remove patch to ls.c; no longer needed.
901 * src/kill.c (strtoimax): Remove decl.
902 * src/ls.c: Include "wcwidth.h" instead of rolling it ourselves.
903 * src/wc.c: Likewise.
904 * src/ls.c (sort_files): Rewrite to avoid need for C99-style
905 declaration, so that we don't need to patch this file.
906 * src/printf.c (strtoimax, strtoumax): Remove decls.
907 * src/su.c: Include getpass.h.
909 * src/system.h: Include mempcpy.h, stpcpy.h, strpbrk.h.
910 Include inttypes.h unconditionally.
911 (LONGEST_MODIFIER, PRIdMAX, PRIoMAX, PRIuMAX, PRIxMAX): Remove.

941 Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically.
943 2006-08-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
945 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Reinstate the patch from 2006-08-15;
946 the patch from 2006-08-18 broke on cygwin.
948 2006-08-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
950 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.2-cvs.
951 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.2 and add "-cvs" suffix.
953 2006-08-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
956 * NEWS: Record the 6.1 release date.
957 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
959 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add sparse-file.
961 Avoid test failure when `make check' is run through debuild.
962 * tests/help-version: Ensure that $SHELL is set to some value
963 and exported. Patch from Sven Joachim. For details, see
964 <http://bugs.debian.org/355368>.
966 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Test for the 2006-08-17 `ls -CF' fix.
968 * README: Describe potential "pre-C99 build failure", and work-around.
970 Some of my 2006-07-03 changes to tests/*/Makefile.am were being
971 backed out due to updates provoked by the copyright changes.
972 * tests/Makefile.am.in (PATH): Prepend $(VG_PATH_PREFIX), so that
973 it propagates to the derived Makefile.am files.
974 ($(srcdir)/Makefile.am): Mark generated .am files as read-only,
975 so we don't mistakenly edit them again.
976 * tests/cut/Makefile.am: Regenerate.

988 * NEWS: Fix cp --sparse so that it preserves tail-end sparseness, even
989 when the file's apparent size is not a multiple of its block size.
990 * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Don't write a NUL before calling ftruncate.
991 For some file sizes, writing that single byte would unnecessarily
992 waste a few file blocks. That write may have been necessary in the
993 early days of Linux, but now, removing it should be safe.
994 Based on a patch by Alan Curry: <http://bugs.debian.org/370792>
995 * tests/cp/sparse: New test for the above.
996 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sparse.
998 * tests/sparse-file: New file, essence factored out of...
999 * tests/du/8gb: ... here. Use the new script.

1003 * src/system.h (select_plural): Reduce by 1000000, not 1000, since
1004 the CVS gettext manual now suggests 1000000.
1006 2006-08-18 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
1008 Add support for NetBSD 3.0.
1009 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Set to 1 if 'struct statvfs' has a field
1011 (STATXFS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_MEMBER_NAME): Define also if 'struct statvfs'
1012 has a field f_fstypename.
1013 This undoes the 2006-08-15 to src/stat.c.

1355 ls -CF would misalign columns in some cases.
1356 * src/ls.c (get_type_indicator): New function. extracted from...
1357 (print_type_indicator): ...here. Use it.
1358 (length_of_file_name_and_frills): Use it here, too, rather than
1359 assuming stat.st_mode is valid.
1360 Reported by Andreas Schwab, here:
1361 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7774>
1362 See the test for this above. FYI, I did ls -CF /proc and visually
1363 inspected the result.
1365 * src/copy.c (copy_internal, same_file_ok): Adjust comments not
1366 to mention the now-removed cp_options.xstat member.
1368 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Adapt to work now that the patch
1369 modifies more than one file in src/.
1371 With this patch, permit building with Solaris cc on Solaris 7.
1372 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Add diffs to convert more c99-isms.
1373 This integrates patches from Bruno Haible.
1375 2006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1377 Fix some problems reported by Bruno Haible.
1378 * tests/chmod/setgid (abs_srcdir): Remove; not used or needed.
1379 Skip this test if "chmod g+s d" silently does nothing.
1380 * tests/ls-2/tests: Skip this test suite if we can't set up files
1381 properly for the setuid-etc test. This simplifies some of the
1382 hacks we were using to work around porting problems.
1384 2006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

1389 Reported by Michael Stone.
1391 2006-08-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1393 * tests/lang-default (LC_ALL): Set to "C", so we get
1394 English-language diagnostics. Unset the other variables; it
1395 should be portable to use 'unset' for this stuff nowadays.
1396 Problem reported by Bruno Haible. Using "C" reverses the
1397 2000-10-22 change to fileutils in this area.
1399 Fix bugs when printing plurals of numbers that are not
1400 unsigned long int values.
1401 * src/system.h (select_plural): New function.
1402 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check): Use select_plural to avoid bug.
1403 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Likewise.
1404 * src/dd.c (print_stats): Likewise. Also, don't use ngettext to
1405 print a floating point number, as reducing to 0 or 1 doesn't work
1406 for some languages. Instead, just use "s" for seconds since it
1407 doesn't need a plural form.

1411 Old versions of gzip would write --help output to stderr, and it
1412 would be annoying to see that in the output of every "make" command.

1416 2006-08-16 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
1418 * tests/cp/acl: Don't use non-portable == operator for test.
1420 2006-08-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1422 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Use stat to test file system type, rather
1423 than df -T, in case /etc/mtab lies. Reported by Michael Stone.
1425 2006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1427 * NEWS: Mention that df exits with nonzero status if it generates
1428 no output. This change was in 6.0 but inadvertently unmentioned.
1429 * src/df.c (file_systems_processed): Renamed from n_valid_args, and now
1431 (show_dev): Don't set it until we actually output something.
1432 Print the header if this is the first output.
1433 (main): Don't print a header, as that is now show_dev's job.
1434 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add df.
1435 * tests/misc/df: New file.
1437 2006-08-15 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1439 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): Define to 0 if f_type is needed, but
1440 statvfs.f_type not present. See
1441 <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=16325>.
1443 2006-08-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

1446 causes confusion for the Hungarian translators. Problem reported
1447 by Egmont Koblinger here:

1452 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/at-func.c.
1454 * NEWS: Add a line for 6.1-cvs.
1455 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump to 6.1 and add "-cvs" suffix.
1457 2006-08-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1460 * NEWS: Record the 6.0 release date.
1461 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Remove "-cvs" suffix from version string.
1463 * TODO: Add an item (convert to use gnulib-tool), add to the plan
1464 for id-vs-getgrouplist, and remove a few completed items.
1466 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): Fix syntax error.
1468 2006-08-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1470 * src/shred.c (usage): Don't indent the second line of an item.
1471 Otherwise, help2man would misformat the output.
1472 Reported by Adam Buchbinder in <https://launchpad.net/bugs/48917>.
1474 2006-08-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1476 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT): Upgrade to need-formatstring-macros.
1477 Suggested by Eric Blake to avoid problems like
1478 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-07/msg00087.html>.
1480 2006-08-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1482 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: Too many (losing) systems trigger the
1483 failure that this test checks for (stat/dirent inode mismatch at
1484 a mount point), so continue to give a diagnostic about the failure,
1485 but don't actually count it as a failure.
1487 2006-08-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1489 * ABOUT-NLS: Update from gettext 0.15.
1490 * configure.ac (AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION): Update from 0.13.1 to 0.15.
1492 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Remove fastmap member.
1493 (extract_regexp): Allocate fastmap separately, since otherwise
1494 it might move due to a realloc. This fixes a bug that led
1495 to a core dump on 64-bit sparc Solaris 10 (Sun Studio 10).
1497 2006-08-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1499 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: If "." is tmpfs, skip this test unless uname -s
1500 reports "Linux". This avoids a failure on Solaris 10's tmpfs.
1501 Redirect both stdout and stderr of df invocations.
1503 * src/dircolors.hin: Add a TERM directive for each of the following:
1504 ansi, color-xterm, gnome, konsole, kterm, rxvt-cygwin,
1505 rxvt-cygwin-native, screen.linux, xterm-256color.
1506 Sort the TERM directives.
1507 From Mike Frysinger.
1509 2006-08-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1511 * src/dd.c (usage): Warn about oflag=append without conv=notrunc.
1512 See Debian bug 373736.
1514 * src/dircolors.hin: Add mlterm, rxvt-unicode; this fixes Debian
1517 * src/.cvsignore: Add shuf.
1519 * Makefile.maint: Remove the po-update procedure; it doesn't
1520 work with the new repository on http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/.
1521 For now I guess we'll have to fix things by hand.
1522 (do-po-update, po-update): Remove. All references removed.
1524 * src/shuf.c (next_line): New function.
1525 (read_input): Use it, to avoid relying on GCC-specific behavior
1526 with void * arithmetic. Problem reported by Bob Proulx.
1527 * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Compile with -Wpointer-arith
1528 to detect this sort of problem automatically in the future.
1530 2006-08-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1532 * src/ls.c: Add a compile-time check to ensure that filetype
1533 and filetype_letter have the same number of elements.
1535 * tests/misc/sort-rand: Remove use of --seed=S.
1537 2006-08-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1539 Add a command 'shuf', and modify shred and sort to use the new
1540 random number generator library of 'shuf'.
1542 * AUTHORS: Add shuf.
1544 * NEWS: Likewise. Mention new --random-source option for shred
1545 and sort. Move "sort +1 -2" notice to the appropriate section,
1546 and clarify its role with respect to POSIXLY_CORRECT.
1547 * man/.cvsignore: Add shuf.1.
1548 * man/Makefile.am (dist_man_MANS): Add shuf.1.
1549 (shuf.1): New dependency.
1550 * man/shuf.x: New file.
1551 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add shuf.
1552 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove rand-isaac.c.
1553 (shuf_LDADD): New macro.
1554 * src/rand-isaac.c: Remove, moving most of its contents to
1556 * src/shuf.c: New file.
1557 * src/shred.c: Use new random-number interface rather than rand-isaac.c.
1558 Don't include rand-isaac.c; include randint.h and randread.h instead.
1559 (RANDOM_SOURCE_OPTION): New enum.
1560 (long_opts, usage, main): New option --random-source.
1561 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
1562 * src/shred.c (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Remove.
1563 All callers changed to use randint interface.
1564 (fillrand): Remove. All callers changed to use randread interface.
1565 (dopass): Remove dependency on ISAAC buffer size.
1566 (genpattern): Don't wipe the random state here.
1567 (randint_source): New static var.
1568 (clear_random_data): New function.
1569 (main): Allocate random source, and arrange to wipe it on exit.
1570 * src/sort.c: Include md5.h, randread.h, xmemxfrm.h.
1571 (longopts, usage, main): Remove undocumented --seed option;
1572 it's now replaced by --random-source.
1573 (rand_state, get_hash): Remove.
1574 (randread_source): New static var.
1575 (random_state, cmp_hashes, compare_random): New functions; they guarantee
1576 no collisions in the random hash function.
1577 (keycompare): Use compare_random for -R; don't fall back on comparing
1578 via memcoll, since compare_random does the right thing.
1579 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add shuf.
1580 * tests/misc/shuf: New file.
1582 2006-07-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1584 * src/copy.c (set_author): Preserve the st_author field via the
1585 file descriptor dest_desc.
1587 2006-07-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1589 * NEWS: chmod now preserves setuid and setgid bits on directories
1590 if you use a numeric mode with them clear, e.g., "chmod 755 DIR".
1592 Fix test case problems if working directory is setgid,
1593 reported by Bob Proulx.
1594 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use symbolic mode so that we clear
1595 setgid bit more reliably on directories.
1596 * tests/mkdir/special-1 (set_mode_string): Likewise.
1598 2006-07-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1600 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Use correct grammar in description of the
1602 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
1604 2006-07-26 Thomas Schwinge <tschwinge@gnu.org> (tiny change)
1606 * src/copy.c (set_author) [HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_AUTHOR]:
1607 Correctly access SRC_SB's element ST_AUTHOR.
1609 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1611 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Adapt to match new expected output.
1614 * src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Test for S_IFREG first, rather
1615 than having the code test for all of the other types first.
1616 Hoist the set-uid/gid-testing code "up" into this new block.
1617 Classify any other type of file (e.g., S_TYPEISSHM, etc.) as
1618 C_ORPHAN, not as C_FILE.
1620 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1622 Checking in a change from Paul.
1624 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1626 * src/ls.c (DT_INIT): Remove. All uses removed.
1627 (enum filetype): Use an ordinary enum rather than trying to keep
1628 the values in sync with DT_FIFO etc. That way, we don't have
1629 to make special assumptions about them. All uses changed.
1630 (whiteout): New constant member of enum filetype.
1631 (filetype_letter): New constant, for use with enum filetype.
1632 (FILETYPE_INDICATORS): New initializer list.
1633 (print_dir): Add case for DT_WHT.
1634 (gobble_file): If stat fails, don't discard information from
1635 readdir; instead, preserve it so it can be printed.
1636 (print_long_format): Fall back on readdir result if stat info
1637 is not available. Use "?" to denote each unknown mode char,
1638 instead of an overall "?", since we now know some of the mode
1640 (print_type_indicator): Now that MODE isn't necessarily
1641 useful, guard all uses.
1642 Now that two blocks in the type-checking tree can set "type = C_FILE",
1643 move the suffix-handling code out and down.
1645 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1647 Prepare for the above change.
1648 * src/ls.c [struct fileinfo] (stat_ok): Rename from stat_failed,
1649 and adjust uses. From a patch by Paul Eggert.
1651 2006-07-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1653 * src/ls.c: Correct indentation/formatting in a few places.
1655 2006-07-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1657 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Use "chmod 0500" rather than "chmod 500".
1658 Problem report and fix from Bob Proulx.
1659 * NEWS: Clarify the "chmod 0500" news, and correct the vague
1660 statements about compatibility with BSD.
1662 2006-07-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1664 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): When handling a stat-failed entry,
1665 print the entry name not the absolute_name -- to be consistent
1666 with the usual case.
1667 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Update accordingly.
1669 * src/ls.c: Add parens around the new uses of ?: ternary operator.
1671 * src/dircolors.hin: Mention that ORPHAN refers not just to dangling
1674 Get --dired offsets right when handling stat-failed entries.
1675 * src/ls.c (print_long_format): Be careful to increment P by the
1676 appropriate amount, even when inode_number_width and nlink_width
1678 * tests/ls/stat-failed: Test for the above.
1680 * src/ls.c (gobble_file) [USE_ACL]: Don't use-uninitialized the
1681 have_acl member. That would happen for a directory with both a
1682 non-stat'able entry and one with an ACL.
1684 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Make it so failure to stat a
1685 non-command-line file provokes an exit status of 1, not 0.
1686 Say "cannot access" rather than "cannot stat".
1687 * tests/ls/stat-failed: New file/test, for the above.
1688 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-failed.
1689 * tests/ls-2/tests (no-a-isdir-b): Update to reflect addition
1690 of "cannot access " to diagnostic.
1692 * src/ls.c: Declare stat_failed to be "bool", not "int" everywhere.
1694 * src/ls.c [enum filetype] (command_line): Remove member. Not needed.
1695 Replace all occurrences of "type == command_line" with the
1696 equivalent, "command_line_arg".
1698 * src/ls.c: Apply the stat-failed parts of Red Hat's
1699 coreutils-selinux.patch. From Ulrich Drepper.
1700 This makes it so files not mentioned on the command line (e.g.,
1701 names read from a directory that *is* mentioned on the command
1702 line) for which stat fails are still listed. With --color,
1703 such files are colored just like ORPHANs (aka dangling symlinks).
1705 * src/df.c (n_valid_args): Declare global to be static.
1707 2006-07-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1709 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: Skip this test on reiserfs, since that file
1710 system lacks d_type support.
1712 2006-07-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1714 * man/chmod.x: Update to reflect recent changes to coreutils.texi.
1716 2006-07-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1718 * src/su.c (usage): Correct typo in --help output: s/commmand/command/
1719 Reported by Tim Waugh.
1720 Also remove the comment duplicating much of --help output.
1722 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): Reposition this new
1723 name so the list remains alphabetized.
1725 Fix another bug: ls --indicator-style=file-type would call
1726 stat for a symlink, even though it wasn't always needed.
1727 In some cases, that unnecessary stat would cause ls to fail.
1728 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Don't treat symlinks specially (in
1729 requiring a stat syscall). Remove the offending exclusion.
1731 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
1733 * tests/ls/stat-dtype: New file/test, for the above fix.
1734 Also exercises the new df feature, below.
1736 * src/df.c (main): Fail and don't print the headers if no
1737 file system is processed. This makes it easy to test whether
1738 a specified directory is on a file system of a given type or types.
1739 Otherwise, applications would have had to parse df's output.
1740 E.g., is "." either ext3 or reiserfs: df -t ext3 -t reiserfs .
1742 Fix a bug: ls --file-type worked like --indicator-style=slash,
1743 rather than like --indicator-style=file-type.
1744 * src/ls.c (FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION): New enum member.
1745 (long_options): Map "file-type" to FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION,
1747 (decode_switches): Handle new case: FILE_TYPE_INDICATOR_OPTION.
1748 * NEWS: Mention the fix.
1749 * tests/ls-2/tests (file-type): New test, for the above fix.
1751 2006-07-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1753 * src/ls.c (print_dir): Give a better diagnostic for failed opendir.
1755 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/vc-list-files.
1757 2006-07-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1759 * NEWS: chmod, install, and mkdir now leave setgid and setuid bits
1760 of directories alone unless you specify them explicitly.
1761 install and mkdir now implement X correctly.
1762 install now creates parent directories with mode 755, without
1763 changing their owner or group.
1764 * src/chmod.c (process_file): Adjust to mode_adjust API change.
1765 * src/install.c: Include mkancesdirs.h.
1766 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions.
1767 (DEFAULT_MODE): New macro, specifying initial value of 'mode'.
1769 (dir_mode, dir_mode_bits): New vars.
1770 (main): Set dir modes separately from nondir, so that the X
1771 op of -m works correctly.
1772 (main): Remove cwd_errno cruft, since make_dir_parents no longer
1773 affects cwd. Adjust to new make_dir_parents API.
1774 (install_file_in_file_parents): 2nd arg is now char *, not char
1775 const *. Use mkancesdirs instead of rolling our own code.
1776 (change_attributes): Don't worry about AFS, since that kludge
1777 should not be needed any more.
1778 * src/mkdir.c (struct mkdir_options): New struct.
1779 (announce_mkdir, make_ancestor): New functions.
1780 (main): Use them. Adjust to mode_adjust API change. Stick with
1781 umask 0. Use make_dir_parents for all the work.
1782 * src/mkfifo.c (main): Adjust to new mode_adjust API.
1783 * src/mknod.c (main): Likewise.
1784 * tests/chmod/setgid: Do the setgid test instead of bailing.
1785 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Remove re_protect case that no longer applies.
1786 GNU chmod now behaves like other versions of chmod.
1787 * tests/mkdir/perm: Add a test for the X bug.
1789 2006-07-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1791 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Output to parameter OUT, not to stdout.
1792 This doesn't fix any bugs, since OUT always equals stdout, but it
1793 makes the code easier to understand.
1795 2006-07-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1797 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use new file, build-aux/vc-list-files,
1798 rather than open-coding it. Now supports mercurial, too.
1799 * .hgignore: New file.
1800 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .hgignore, which ignores nearly
1801 all generated files, including ones like configure and po/*.po
1802 that are currently version-controlled in cvs.
1804 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add a few more .??* files.
1805 They've been in CVS, just haven't been distributed before this.
1806 Distribute ChangeLog-2005, too.
1807 (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add THANKS-to-translators.
1809 2006-07-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1811 * src/system.h: Assume <dirent.h> exists, since gnulib assumes
1814 2006-07-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1816 * tests/mv/dir2dir: Adjust so failing with ENOTEMPTY is ok, too.
1817 That happens with Linux/tmpfs.
1818 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir2dir.
1820 2006-07-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1822 Adjust to recent updates from gnulib.
1823 * src/dd.c (apply_translations): Use toupper rather than
1824 islower followed by toupper; it's simpler and typically
1825 faster now that we assume at least C89 semantics. Similarly
1827 * src/sort.c (inittables): Likewise.
1828 * src/expand.c (expand): Don't assume that isprint etc. return
1829 booleans (needed for pre-C99 hosts).
1830 * src/fmt.c (check_punctuation): Likewise.
1831 * src/ptx.c (initialize_regex, fix_output_parameters): Likewise.
1832 * src/tr.c (is_char_class_member): Likewise.
1833 * src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Likewise.
1834 * src/join.c (is_blank): Remove; no longer needed. All uses
1835 replaced by isblank (to_uchar (...)).
1836 * src/pinky.c (create_fullname): Don't assume char is unsigned.
1837 * src/printf.c (print_esc): Likewise.
1838 * src/ptx.c (SKIP_NON_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE, SKIP_WHITE_BACKWARDS):
1839 (copy_unescaped_string): Likewise.
1840 * src/stat.c (print_it): Likewise.
1841 * src/system.h (_D_EXACT_NAMELEN): Renamed from NLENGTH, for
1842 convenience on GNU systems. All uses changed. Don't bother
1843 looking for any dirent.h substitute other than ndir.h.
1844 (D_INO): Remove unnecessary parentheses.
1845 (IN_CTYPE_DOMAIN, ISGRAPH, ISPRINT, ISALNUM, ISALPHA):
1846 (ISCNTRL, ISLOWER, ISPUNCT, ISSPACE, ISUPPER, ISXDIGIT):
1847 (ISDIGIT_LOCALE, TOLOWER, TOUPPER): Remove. All uses changed
1848 to ctype.h equivalents.
1849 (isblank): Renamed from ISBLANK. Check for HAVE_DECL_ISBLANK too.
1852 2006-07-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1854 * tests/mv/dir2dir: New file, test for 2006-07-05 fix in copy.c.
1856 * Makefile.maint (sc_the_the): New rule.
1858 * src/dd.c (skip): Remove one of two adjacent "the"s in a comment.
1859 * tests/Coreutils.pm (run_tests): Remove one of two adjacent "then"s
1862 2006-07-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1864 * NEWS: Mention that mv can now remove an empty destination directory,
1865 and give an example. Prompted by a report from Florent Bayle.
1867 2006-07-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1869 * src/ls.c (usage): Correct the description of -G: it is useful
1870 only in a long listing. Reported by Martin Pool in
1871 <https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/51653>.
1873 * man/chmod.x: Correct the description of the sticky bit. Reported
1874 by Chris Moore via Ian Jackson in <http://bugs.debian.org/376745>.
1876 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't work around old NFS clients like
1877 SunOS-4.1.4 and Irix 5.3 that set errno to values like EIO and
1878 ENOTEMPTY upon failed rename. Otherwise, we risk misinterpreting
1879 a banal failure as a recursive move-into-self failure.
1880 Reported by Florent Bayle in <http://bugs.debian.org/376749>.
1882 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
1884 2006-07-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1886 Plug another unusual leak.
1887 (AD_mark_helper): Free malloc'd filename if hash_insert says
1888 that string is already in the hash table.
1890 The dev/inode of the topmost directory in each hierarchy were not
1892 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Don't call cycle_check here.
1893 (AD_push): Call it from here instead.
1895 Fix two small leaks.
1896 * src/remove.c (AD_stack_clear): New function.
1898 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Free *prev_dir just before longjmp.
1900 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/*/Makefile.am: (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
1901 Add $VG_PATH_PREFIX as a prefix to $PATH
1903 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add CDPATH and POSIXLY_CORRECT.
1904 * tests/Makefile.am (evar-check): Remove rule.
1905 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove .env-warn.
1906 * tests/.env-warn: Remove file. No longer used.
1907 Suggestion from Eric Blake.
1909 2006-07-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1911 * src/system.h: Include <stdint.h> unconditionally, since we
1912 now assume the stdint module.
1914 2006-07-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1916 * NEWS: With no operand, 'tail -f' now silently ignores the '-f'
1917 only if standard input is a FIFO or pipe and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
1918 * src/tail.c (main): Implement this.
1919 * tests/tail/Test.pm (f-pipe-1): Renamed from f-1.
1920 (test_vector): Set POSIXLY_CORRECT for the f-pipe-* tests.
1922 2006-07-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1924 * src/ln.c (do_link): Use new, shorter URL, for ag-review link.
1926 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add ^lib/xstrtold\.c$, so make distcheck
1929 2006-06-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1931 * NEWS: seq now uses long double internally rather than double.
1932 It now defaults to a minimal fixed point format if possible.
1933 It lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, %G.
1934 * src/Makefile.am (seq_LDADD): Remove $(SEQ_LIBM); add $(POW_LIB).
1935 * src/seq.c: Don't include <math.h> or <xstrtol.h>; no longer needed.
1936 (isfinite) [!defined isfinite]: New macro.
1937 (separator, terminator): Now points to const.
1938 (first, step, last): Remove.
1939 (usage): Update to match new behavior.
1940 (struct operand, operand): New type.
1941 (scan_arg): Renamed from scan_double_arg, since we no longer use double.
1943 Compute and return a value of type operand, not double.
1944 (long_double_format): Renamed from valid_format, and now returns a
1945 new format with an "L" added if needed, if the original format was
1946 valid. Allow %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats.
1947 (print_numbers): Take numeric values as args rather than from globals.
1948 Print long double, not double.
1949 (get_width_format): Remove.
1950 (get_default_format): New function.
1951 (main): Implement new way of calculating default format.
1952 Don't worry about locale's representation of the decimal point, since
1953 the arguments are always processed in the C locale.
1954 * tests/seq/basic (neg-2): Adjust to new default format.
1955 (eq-wid-1, eq-wid-2): Resurrect these tests, since the new
1956 implementation should do the right thing.
1958 2006-06-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1960 * tests/stty/basic-1: Work around an intermittent test failure
1961 on HP-UX 11.11. Report and analysis from Bob Proulx.
1962 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7475
1964 2006-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1966 * NEWS: Support obsolete usages like "sort +1 -2" even when
1967 conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001, since this is a pure extension to
1968 POSIX. Problem reported by Christian in:
1969 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00220.html
1970 * src/sort.c (main): Implement this.
1972 * src/system.h (CLOSEDIR): Remove. All uses changed to closedir.
1973 Autoconf 2.60 says this stuff was obsolete.
1975 2006-06-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1977 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
1979 2006-06-28 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
1981 * tests/mv/i-link-no: Work around HP-UX /bin/sh tracing problem
1982 (set -x when VERBOSE=yes) when stderr is redirected before stdout
1983 causing shell tracing of the stdout redirection to be written to
1984 the stderr file. Avoid problem and test failure on HP-UX by
1985 redirecting stderr last.
1986 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Order shell file redirections for
1987 stderr and stdout in the common style.
1988 tests/acl: Likewise.
1990 2006-06-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1992 * tests/misc/cat-proc: Try to avoid any spurious numeric
1993 differences in frequently-changing /proc/cpuinfo.
1994 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
1996 2006-06-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1998 Attempt rmdir (actually, unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR) upon any
1999 fd_to_subdirp failure, not just when errno == EACCES.
2000 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Use unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR, not
2001 rmdir, here, even though rmdir may happen to be adequate.
2003 * NEWS: rm no longer fails to remove an empty, unreadable directory
2004 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): If we can't open a directory,
2005 and the failure is not being ignored, try to remove the directory
2006 with rmdir (aka unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR), in case it's empty.
2007 Problem report and test case from Paul Eggert in
2008 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7425>.
2010 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test, for the above.
2012 Avoid a segfault for wc --files0=- < /dev/null.
2013 * src/wc.c (compute_number_width): Return right away if nfiles == 0.
2015 2006-06-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2017 * NEWS: wc accepts a new option --files0-from=FILE, where FILE
2018 contains a list of NUL-separated file names.
2020 * src/wc.c: Include "readtokens.h".
2021 (usage): Describe the new option, and adjust the `Usage':
2022 with this option, no FILE may be specified on the command line.
2023 (main): Handle the new option.
2024 * tests/misc/wc-files0: New tests, for the above.
2025 * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: Likewise.
2026 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add wc-files0.
2028 2006-06-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2030 * src/md5sum.c (DIGEST_BUFFER): Remove now-unused definitions.
2032 2006-06-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2034 * src/tee.c (tee_files): Rename from tee, to avoid conflict with
2035 the function in glibc's <fcntl.h>. Reported by Andreas Schwab.
2037 2006-06-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2039 * Makefile.cfg (local-checks-to-skip): Add changelog-check,
2040 so this check is not run as part of "make distcheck".
2042 2006-06-18 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
2044 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Fix typo (s/neq/ne/) in previous change.
2046 2006-06-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2048 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Make error output a little clearer.
2050 2006-06-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2052 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Skip this test on systems without openat
2053 support. Reported by Bob Proulx.
2055 2006-06-15 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
2057 * tests/misc/mknod: Improve permission checks to handle
2058 running mkdir test in set-gid directories.
2060 2006-06-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2062 * tests/du/basic: Revamp not to hard-code file system block sizes.
2064 2006-06-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2066 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass $(PERL), for
2069 2006-06-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2071 * .gitignore: New file.
2072 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .gitignore.
2074 Setting TIME_STYLE=long-iso in the environment would make the
2075 cp/same-file test fail.
2076 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add TIME_STYLE to the list.
2077 * tests/cp/same-file: Revert last change.
2078 Source the envvar-check script, to ensure that TIME_STYLE
2079 settings don't affect these tests.
2081 2006-06-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2083 * tests/cp/same-file: Execute 'ls' in the C locale, so that it
2084 uses POSIX time stamp formats. Problem reported by John Nixon in
2085 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00062.html>.
2087 2006-06-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2089 * NEWS: Mention the AIX-strndup-bug vs. dircolors workaround.
2091 Require a "Version N.M" line at the top of the ChangeLog
2092 file only when making the actual release, not when running
2094 * Makefile.maint (maintainer-distcheck): Don't depend on
2096 (alpha beta major): Depend on it here, instead.
2098 2006-06-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2100 Ensure that cat works with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T,
2101 when applied to files in /proc and /sys, even when the FIONREAD
2102 ioctl produces nonsensical results. Before this change, cat would
2103 produce no output (or truncated output), for some linux kernels.
2105 * src/cat.c (write_pending): New function, factored out of cat.
2106 (cat): Also interpret a negative ioctl/FIONREAD count as indicating
2107 that there are bytes to read. Some versions of linux-2.6.16 do that.
2108 Write any pending output before returning.
2109 Reported by Dan Jacobson in <http://bugs.debian.org/370583>.
2110 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
2111 * tests/misc/cat-proc: New file. Test for the above.
2112 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cat-proc.
2114 2006-06-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2116 * src/expr.c (eval4): Detect overflow properly when multiplying
2119 2006-06-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2121 * NEWS: The 'expr' command now detects and reports integer overflow.
2122 (It would be better to use extended precision instead, but that
2123 would be more work.)
2124 * src/expr.c (integer_overflow): New function.
2125 (eval4, eval3): Check for integer overflow.
2127 2006-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2129 Fix problems when building with Solaris/SVR4/etc. make, which uses a
2130 different and somewhat bogus implementation of VPATH. In the
2131 directory tests/misc, rename tests whose names might appear in the
2132 Automake-generated rules. For example, we can't use a test named
2133 'test', since Automake generates a rule that contains the text
2134 "if test -f ./$$tst; ...", and this might expand to something like
2135 "if ../../../coreutils-6.0/tests/misc/test -f ./$$test; ...",
2136 which executes the 'test' script rather than the 'test' command.
2137 * tests/misc/false-status: Renamed from tests/misc/false.
2138 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Renamed from tests/misc/pwd.
2139 * tests/misc/sort-merge: Renamed from tests/misc/sort.
2140 ($prog): Set to 'sort' rather than to $PROG.
2141 * tests/misc/test-diag: Renamed from tests/misc/test.
2142 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (PROG): Take the basename of $$tst,
2143 in case Solaris make has prepended the directory.
2144 (TESTS): Adjust to above renamings.
2145 * tests/misc/expand: Don't assign to PROG; no longer needed
2146 now that Makefile.am sets PROG to the basename.
2147 * tests/misc/fold: Likewise.
2149 2006-06-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2151 Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the
2152 link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link.
2153 * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use
2154 the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing.
2155 Based on the patch by Aurelien Jarno: <http://bugs.debian.org/329451>
2156 * tests/cp/link-no-deref: New file/test for the above.
2157 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-no-deref.
2158 * NEWS: Mention the change (doesn't affect Linux).
2160 2006-06-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2162 Fix some porting problems in the test cases reported by
2163 Ralf Wildenhues for HP-UX 11.23 in:
2164 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00238.html
2165 * tests/help-version: Don't assume that \< \> works in sed.
2166 * tests/misc/close-stdout: Don't assume that >&- works.
2167 Add a /dev/full test.
2168 * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Don't assume that >&- works.
2170 2006-05-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2172 * src/ls.c (usage): Add `v' to the list of sorting-related options.
2175 2006-05-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
2177 * tests/cp/fail-perm: source lang-default.
2178 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Likewise.
2180 2006-05-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2182 * tests/rm/inaccessible: AIX 4.3.3 gives a different diagnostic.
2183 Recognize it, too. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues, in
2184 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html
2186 2006-05-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2188 * src/chgrp.c: Support new options: --preserve-root and
2189 --no-preserve-root. Somehow this program was skipped when those
2190 options were added to chown, chmod, and rm. Reported by
2191 vaqflabuopac@spammotel.com in <http://bugs.debian.org/365656>.
2192 * NEWS: Mention this.
2194 2006-05-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2196 * NEWS: Remove mention of --seed. We'll replace it with something
2197 better, and don't want to indicate that it is supported.
2198 * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise.
2200 2006-05-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2202 * src/chmod.c (main): Use FTS_PHYSICAL here, too.
2204 * src/du.c (main): Rename local, s/symlink_deref_bit/symlink_deref_bits/
2205 and arrange for -D to set fts' FTS_PHYSICAL bit as well as
2206 FTS_COMFOLLOW. Spotted by Justin Pryzby.
2208 * gnupload: Merge changes from automake, retaining the ""--to...
2209 kludge to placate overzealous `make distcheck' check.
2211 2006-05-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2213 * src/du.c (main): Don't let -D, -L, or -P turn off the internal
2214 FTS_TIGHT_CYCLE_CHECK directory traversal option.
2215 Reported by Justin Pryzby in http://bugs.debian.org/367691
2217 2006-05-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2219 * src/cp.c (usage): Correct description of -a: s/-dpR/-dpPR/.
2220 From Tomas Pospisek.
2222 2006-05-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2224 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: Test two more cases.
2226 2006-05-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2228 mv -T DIR EMPTY_DIR no longer fails unconditionally
2229 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't manually prohibit a move where
2230 the destination is an existing directory. Sometimes doing that is
2231 valid. Let the rename system call enforce the rules. That is
2232 allowed only when the source is a directory and the destination
2233 directory (to be replaced) is empty. Reported by Eric Blake.
2234 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: New file/test for this.
2235 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add no-target-dir.
2236 * NEWS: Mention this.
2238 * tests/mv/atomic: New file/test for yesterday's fix.
2239 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add atomic.
2241 * tests/du/long-sloop: Avoid harmless `ambiguous redirect' diagnostic.
2243 2006-05-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2245 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't explicitly unlink the destination
2246 when moving a symlink into the place of an existing non-directory.
2247 Reported by Joshua Hudson.
2248 * NEWS: mention this.
2250 2006-05-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2252 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Fail if patch generates any output,
2253 even merely for changed offsets.
2255 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust to reflect new offsets.
2257 * NEWS: Mention changes affecting df, pwd, shred.
2259 2006-05-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2261 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: New test, to detect the bogus file
2262 system condition where dirent.d_ino != stat.st_ino.
2263 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-vs-dirent.
2265 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2267 * tests/ls/inode: Expand to test inode from readdir case.
2268 * tests/ls/follow-slink: Expand to test broken links encountered
2269 implicitly, favoring Solaris 9 and OpenBSD 3.4 behavior.
2271 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2273 * tests/mv/leak-fd: Work even on case-insensitive file system.
2275 2006-05-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2277 * NEWS: Mention the 2006-03-19 pwd-related change that makes
2278 lib/getcwd.c work around inconsistent file system dirent.d_ino data.
2280 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2282 * src/ls.c (DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS, LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS):
2283 Use better macro parameter names: s/basename/key_name/,
2284 s/basefunc/key_cmp_func. Fix typo in comment.
2286 2006-04-29 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2288 * src/ls.c (main): On systems with d_type, directories_first only
2289 implies format_needs_type, not format_needs_stat.
2291 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2293 * src/ls.c (xstrcoll_df_version, rev_xstrcoll_df_version): Add space
2294 after comma in arg list, from Eric Blake.
2296 2006-04-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2298 * tests/misc/date (relative-3): New test, derived from a bug
2299 report by John Thomas McDole.
2301 2006-04-23 Francesco Montorsi <fr_m@hotmail.com>
2303 New option for ls: --group-directories-first.
2304 It makes ls list directories before files.
2305 * NEWS [New features]: Mention it.
2306 * src/ls.c (sort_type): Rearrange to use as an array index when
2307 choosing sort function; added new sort_numtypes member for
2309 (time_type): Add new time_numtypes member for compile-time check.
2310 (directories_first): New global variable.
2311 (GROUP_DIRECTORIES_FIRST_OPTION): New enum.
2312 (long_options): Add --directories-first.
2313 (main): Support new option.
2314 (is_directory): New function.
2315 (extract_dirs_from_files): Use it.
2316 (DIRFIRST_CHECK, DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS)
2317 (LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS): New macros.
2318 (sort_functions): New global variable.
2319 (sort_files): Use it.
2320 (usage): Document new option.
2322 2006-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2324 * src/shred.c (fillrand): The assertion was way too weak, due to
2325 what must be a typo. Strengthen it to its intended value.
2326 (dopass): Don't use alloca; it's not worth the aggravation here,
2327 since it's used only to get a page-aligned buffer, and page
2328 alignment doesn't buy us much here. I'm suspicious that alloca
2329 causes problems on some hosts, due to a recent bug report by Adam
2330 Waltman: http://bugs.gentoo.org/130246.
2332 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2334 * tests/misc/tty-eof: Add new programs, base64, sha224sum, sha256sum,
2335 sha384sum, sha512sum.
2337 2006-04-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2339 * src/chmod.c (describe_change): Adjust to filemode changes.
2340 * src/ls.c (HAVE_ST_DM_MODE): Remove; moved to ../lib/filemode.c.
2341 (print_long_format): Use (new) filemodestring rather than
2342 (old) mode_string, so that we get more file types right, at least
2343 in theory. Adjust to filemode changes.
2344 * src/stat.c (human_access): Likewise.
2346 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2348 * src/ptx.c (main) [DEFAULT_IGNORE_FILE]: Remove code to use a default
2349 ignore file. This has never been enabled. Reported by Eric Blake.
2351 2006-04-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2353 * src/ln.c (linkfunc): Remove. This method ran into a compiler/linker
2354 bug in Interix. Just call symlink or link directly. All uses changed.
2355 * src/setuidgid.c (main) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Don't call setgroups.
2356 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): New macro.
2357 Include <sys/statvfs.h> and use statvfs only if USE_STATVFS.
2358 (NAMEMAX_FORMAT): define a bit more clearly, now that the
2359 statvfs-using code is a bit more regular.
2360 * src/system.h (sync) [!HAVE_SYNC]: New macro.
2362 2006-04-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2364 * NEWS: csplit, nl, expr now conform to POSIX better, and are
2365 more-compatible with traditional Unix, with respect to regular
2367 * src/csplit.c (extract_regexp): Set re_syntax_options to a
2368 value that is compatible with what POSIX requires.
2369 * src/nl.c (build_type_arg): Likewise.
2370 * src/expr.c (docolon): Likewise. Also, don't let anchors match
2371 newline; this fixes an incompatibility with tradition and with POSIX.
2372 Don't warn about leading ^. POSIX says it is unspecified whether
2373 ^ is a special character, which means that implementations can
2374 either treat it as special or not, but either way a warning is not
2375 allowed (unless the regexp is otherwise invalid). Instead, anchor
2376 the expression but treat ^ as an anchor; this is the traditional
2377 behavior (e.g., Solaris 10).
2378 (eval4, eval3, eval2): Treat non-numeric args, division by zero,
2379 and the like as invalid expressions (exit status 2), not as
2380 failure of 'expr' (exit status 3). This is more consistent with
2381 how Solaris behaves.
2382 * tests/expr/basic (fail-a): Adjust exit status to match new expr
2383 behavior, for status 2 versus 3.
2385 (bre1, bre2, bre3, bre4, bre5, bre6, bre7, bre8, bre9, bre10):
2386 (bre11, bre12, bre13, bre14, bre15, bre16, bre17, bre18, bre19, bre20):
2387 (bre21, bre22, bre23, bre24, bre25, bre26, bre27, bre28, bre29, bre30):
2388 (bre31, bre32, bre33, bre34, bre35, bre36, bre37, bre38, bre39, bre40):
2389 (bre41, bre42, bre43, bre44, bre45, bre46, bre47, bre48, bre49, bre50):
2390 (bre51, bre52, bre53, bre54, bre55, bre56, bre57, bre58, bre59, bre60):
2391 (bre61, bre62): New tests.
2392 * tests/misc/csplit: Use \{...\} in test RE, to test that we're
2393 conforming to POSIX.
2396 * tests/du/long-from-unreachable: Solaris 8 sh doesn't understand
2397 "if !". Do not assume that 'sed' can handle long, newline-free input.
2398 * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. Evaluate expr once, not $n times.
2400 2006-04-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2402 Adjust to new regex.h API (with new fastmap type), and clean
2403 up the regex storage allocation a bit.
2405 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Put re_compiled member at the
2406 end, since it's large. Change regexpr member from char * to bool;
2407 all uses changed. Add new member fastmap.
2408 (extract_regexp): regexp arg is now char const *, not char *.
2409 Don't bother duplicating the regular expression; it's not needed.
2410 Set fastmap from new fastmap member. Don't bother allocating
2411 a buffer, as the regexp code does a better job than we do.
2412 * src/expr.c (docolon): Allocate and use a fastmap.
2413 Don't bother allocating a buffer.
2414 * src/nl.c (body_fastmap, header_fastmap, footer_fastmap):
2416 (build_type_arg): New fastmap arg. All uses changed.
2417 Don't bother allocating a buffer, but set a fastmap.
2418 * src/ptx.c (context_regex_string, word_regex_string): Remove.
2419 (context_regex, word_regex): New vars, replacing the above.
2421 (struct regex_data): New type.
2422 (compile_regex): Renamed from alloc_and_compile_regex, since
2423 we no longer allocate storage. Arg is now a struct regex_data *,
2424 not a const char *. All uses changed. Don't allocate the fastmap;
2425 instead, take it from the caller. Don't convert size_t to int,
2426 to avoid arithmetic overflow problems. Don't bother freeing
2427 storage afterwards; it's not worth the aggravation.
2428 * src/tac.c (compiled_separator_fastmap): New ver.
2429 (main): Use it. Don't bother allocating a buffer.
2431 2006-03-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

2439 (main): Alias --copyright to --version plus a deprecation warning.
2440 * NEWS: Mention this.
2442 2006-03-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2444 * src/Makefile.am (uptime_LDADD): Add $(POW_LIB), for uptime's
2445 use of strtod. Tiny patch from Nickolai Zeldovich.
2447 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2449 * tests/misc/dirname: New file.
2450 * tests/basename/Makefile.am: Delete.

2456 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove tests/basename.
2458 Improvements to dirname/basename handling on platforms like
2459 cygwin with distinct // and with drive letters.
2460 * NEWS: Document new behavior.
2461 * src/basename.c (main): Don't strip suffix from file system
2463 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Use new last_component.
2464 (ASSIGN_BASENAME_STRDUPA): Likewise. Reduce time spent
2465 traversing the string.
2466 * src/dircolors.c (guess_shell_syntax): Use new last_component.
2467 * src/install.c (target_directory_operand, install_file_in_dir):

2477 2006-03-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2479 * NEWS: nohup diagnostics are now more precise, and nohup now
2480 redirects stderr to nohup.out if stdout is closed and stderr is a tty.
2481 * src/nohup.c (main): Implement this.
2482 * tests/misc/nohup: Test the new behavior.
2484 2006-03-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2486 * src/copy.c (set_author): Rename function, from preserve_author.
2488 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use new macro,
2489 CYCLE_CHECK_REFLECT_CHDIR_UP, rather than open-coding it.
2491 * src/system.h (SAME_INODE): Remove definition.
2492 Include "same-inode.h", instead.
2494 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2496 * src/pwd.c (robust_getcwd): Prepend only one slash, not two.
2498 2006-03-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2500 Fix a bug whereby a user with write access to a directory being removed
2501 could cause the removal of that directory to fail with an erroneous
2502 diagnostic about a directory cycle. Reported by Vineet Chadha.
2504 * NEWS: Mention this.
2505 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): If the directory we're about to
2506 leave (and try to rmdir) is the one whose dev_ino is being used to
2507 detect a cycle, reset cycle_check_state.dev_ino to that of the parent.
2509 2006-03-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2511 * NEWS: Document dd's new 'directory' and 'nolinks' flags.
2512 * src/dd.c (set_fd_flags): Handle file-creation flags on file
2513 descriptors, rather than ignoring them.
2514 * tests/dd/misc: Add test cases for append, nofollow, directory,
2515 and nolinks flags. Simplify redirection to /dev/null in some cases.
2517 * tests/dd/misc: iflags->iflag. This fixes a typo that meant the
2518 noatime test never tested anything.
2520 2006-03-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2522 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): New flags directory, nolinks.
2523 * src/system.h (O_NOLINKS): Define to 0 if not already defined.
2525 * src/ls.c (usage): Mention that -f disables --color.
2526 Problem reported by Niels Möller.
2528 2006-03-03 Justin Pryzby <pryzbyj@justinpryzby.com>
2530 * man/*.x: Add references to syscalls from utilities of the same name.
2532 2006-03-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2534 * tests/help-version: Set SHELL, if not already set, in order to
2535 avoid failure when `make check' is run through debuild; dircolors
2536 would fail due to lack of $SHELL. Reported by Sven Joachim.
2538 Make `base64 --wrap=N' work for N=0, and for N larger than SIZE_MAX.
2539 * src/base64.c (wrap_write, do_encode, main): Change type of
2540 parameters and locals, wrap_column, form size_t to uintmax_t.
2541 (main): Adjust to use xstrtoumax, accordingly.
2543 2006-03-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2545 Don't fail when run from an environment with SHELL not a Bourne
2546 shell, e.g. `env SHELL=/bin/csh make check' would fail this test.
2547 * tests/dircolors/simple: Invoke each non-failing test with -b.
2548 Reported by Michael Stone.
2550 2006-02-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2552 * tests/misc/base64: Derive --decode-using tests from the
2555 * tests/misc/base64: Factor out a long constant string.
2556 Split lines to stay within 80 columns.
2558 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add base64.
2559 * tests/misc/base64: Test base64. From Simon Josefsson.
2561 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Use correct type for parameter,
2562 ignore_garbage: s/size_t/bool/.
2564 * src/base64.c: Don't include .h files already included by system.h:
2565 <string.h>, <stdlib.h>, <stdbool.h>, <limits.h>, <errno.h>.
2566 Include "system.h" before the other lib/*.h header files.
2567 Include <sys/types.h> before "system.h".
2568 (wrap_write): Remove declaration of unused local, initial_column.
2569 (wrap_write): Correct declaration syntax: s/size_t * V/size_t *V/.
2571 * README: Add base64 to the list.
2573 2006-02-17 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com>
2575 New program: base64.
2576 * AUTHORS: Mention base64.
2578 * man/Makefile.am: Build base64.1.
2579 * man/base64.x: New file.
2580 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add base64.
2581 * src/base64.c: New file.
2583 2006-02-25 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2585 In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible.
2586 * src/pwd.c (NOT_AN_INODE_NUMBER, D_INO): Move to ...
2587 * src/system.h: ... here, for use in ...
2588 * src/ls.c (main): ... here. Prefer dirent.d_ino to stat when
2590 (gobble_file): Add inode argument.
2591 (print_dir): Pass inode if available.
2592 (usage): Remove inaccuracy.
2594 2006-02-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2596 * TODO: Update/correct some obsolete entries.
2598 2006-02-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2600 * doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Mention `sort -k 1b,1'.
2601 * src/join.c (usage): Likewise.
2602 Documentation problem reported by Philip Kensche.
2604 2006-02-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2606 * man/rm.x: Update documentation to match previous patch.
2608 2006-02-18 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
2610 New option for rm: --interactive=once (-I).
2611 * NEWS: Document it, along with change to rm --interactive.
2612 * TODO: Remove entry for implementing rm -I
2613 * src/rm.c (INTERACTIVE_OPTION): New enum value.
2614 (interactive_type): New enum.
2615 (long_opts): Let interactive take an optional argument.
2616 (interactive_args, interactive_types): New option arguments.
2617 (usage): Document -I, --interactive=WHEN. Use program_name
2618 instead of a basename.
2619 (main): New -I option, new behavior to --interactive.
2620 * tests/rm/interactive-once: New tests.
2621 * tests/rm/interactive-always: Ditto.
2622 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Run them.
2624 2006-02-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2626 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): Make the regular
2627 expression match more of the target lines, e.g., those that start with
2628 `-S,' (short option followed by a comma) or that include `=[...]'.
2629 Patch by Nicolas François.
2630 Fix the four offenders thus exposed:
2631 * src/join.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
2632 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
2633 the derived man page properly.
2634 * src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.
2635 * src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise.
2636 * src/install.c (usage): Likewise.
2638 2006-02-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2640 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): For `make major', ensure that the
2641 version string is of the form N.N[.N]*, where N is one or more digits.
2643 2006-02-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2645 * INSTALL: Update from gnulib.
2647 2006-02-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2649 * GNUmakefile (all): Emit diagnostics to stderr, not stdout.
2651 2006-02-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2653 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): New target.
2654 (local-checks-available): Add to the list.
2656 2006-02-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2658 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: New file.
2659 * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add c99-to-c89.diff.
2661 * .x-po-check: New file, with exclusions so that `make distcheck'
2663 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-po-check.
2665 rm -r must remove an empty directory, even if it is inaccessible.
2666 * src/remove.c (close_preserve_errno): New function.
2667 (fd_to_subdirp): Don't print a diagnostic in this function.
2668 Do it from the callers instead, unless rmdir succeeds.
2669 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir): Adjust callers.
2670 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test for the above.
2671 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add empty-inacc.
2672 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
2673 * tests/rm/rm2: Adjust two expected diagnostics, now that they're
2674 a tiny bit less precise: cannot remove `a/1': ... instead of
2675 cannot open directory `a/1': ...
2677 * Makefile.maint (syntax-check-rules): Automatically derive this
2678 list of sc_-prefixed rule names.
2680 2006-02-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2682 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Don't assume cvsu is available.
2683 (CVS_LIST_EXCEPT): New macro, to simplify exception-processing.
2684 Most uses of CVS_LIST changed to use CVS_LIST_EXCEPT.
2685 (syntax-check-rules): Bring back sc_changelong. (Hmm, why did it
2686 go away? was that an accident?)
2687 (sc_cast_of_argument_to_free, sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value):
2688 (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value, sc_space_tab, sc_prohibit_atoi_atof):
2689 (sc_error_exit_success, sc_file_system, sc_no_if_have_config_h):
2690 (sc_system_h_headers, sc_sun_os_names, sc_trailing_blank):
2691 (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage, sc_unmarked_diagnostics):
2692 (sc_obsolete_symbols, sc_changelog, sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4):
2693 (sc_useless_cpp_parens, makefile-check, m4-check, po-check):
2694 (author_mark_check, makefile_path_separator_check):
2695 Output line numbers, to simplify navigation of Emacs *compilation*
2697 (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof, sc_file_system):
2698 Rework slightly so that Makefile.maint doesn't get reported as a
2699 violation of its own syntax rules.
2700 (sc_dd_max_sym_length): Use ifneq to do nothing, instead of doing
2701 it at run-time (which didn't work with Bison). Fix a makefile typo,
2702 caught by Makefile.maint itself: spaces where a tab should be.
2703 (po-check): Check lib/*.[ch] even if not in CVS; used by Bison,
2704 which copies from ../gnulib/lib/*.[ch] to lib/*.[ch].
2705 Ignore djgpp and man subdirectories, to avoid false matches with
2706 Bison and coreutils, respectively. Use sort -u to remove the
2707 resulting duplicates.
2708 * gnupload: Rework slightly to avoid bogus warning from
2709 sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
2711 2006-02-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2713 Use gzip's --rsyncable option only if it's available.
2714 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): New variable.
2717 2006-02-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2719 * Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Define in terms of
2720 the expansion, $(syntax-check-rules), rather than the single,
2721 top-level target `syntax-check', so that it's easier to exclude
2722 individual rules (via $(local-checks-to-skip)).
2723 (tgz-md5, tgz-sha1, ...): Remove now-unused definitions.
2725 2006-02-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2727 * src/system.h (!defined O_DIRECT): If O_DIRECTIO is defined (as it
2728 is on Tru64), define O_DIRECT to that. Patch From James Lemley.
2730 * tests/help-version (expected_failure_status_vdir):
2731 Redirect an expected disk-full diagnostic to /dev/null.
2733 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2735 * src/unexpand.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
2736 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
2737 the derived man page properly.
2738 * src/rm.c (usage): Likewise for --no-preserve-root.
2739 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
2740 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise.
2742 Add a rule to ensure that the above doesn't happen again.
2743 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): New rule.
2744 (syntax-check-rules): Add it.
2745 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: New empty file.
2746 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
2748 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2750 * src/cp.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate each
2751 option string from its description, so help2man formats the
2752 derived man page properly.
2753 * src/mv.c (usage): Likewise.
2754 Patch from Nicolas François in http://bugs.debian.org/351601.
2756 2006-02-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2758 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): cp -RL would fail when encountering
2759 the same directory more than once in the hierarchy beneath a single
2760 command-line argument. That is legitimate, e.g. when there are
2761 two or more symbolic links, each pointing to some directory that
2762 would not otherwise be copied. Reported by Christophe LYON.
2763 * tests/cp/cp-deref: New file. Test for today's fix.
2764 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-deref.
2765 * NEWS: Document this.
2767 2006-02-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2769 * configure.ac: Require automake-1.9.6, not 1.8.3.
2771 2006-02-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2773 * src/od.c (usage): Mention that -t a ignores high order bit.
2774 Documentation problem reported by Ed Avis.
2776 2006-02-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2778 * src/pwd.c (find_dir_entry): Remove unused local, `ent_sb_valid'.
2780 2006-01-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2782 * src/head.c (main): Use a better diagnostic when someone uses a
2783 trailing numeric option in an invalid way. Problem reported by
2785 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Likewise.
2787 2006-01-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2789 * man/wc.x: Include `count' keyword in man page synopsis,
2790 per suggestion from http://bugs.debian.org/181585.
2792 2006-01-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2794 * src/df.c (show_dev): If the file system claims to have
2795 more available than total blocks, report the number of used
2796 blocks as being total - available (a negative number) rather
2797 than as garbage. Problem reported by Toralf Foerster.
2799 2006-01-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2801 * src/tail.c (tail_forever): Don't exit-nonzero when an attempt
2802 to put a regular file in O_NONBLOCK mode fails with EPERM.
2803 That happens on Linux (up to 2.6.15) when using tail -f on a file with
2804 the append-only attribute. Reported by Dean Gaudet. For details,
2805 see http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15473.
2806 * NEWS: Mention this fix.
2807 * tests/tail-2/append-only: New file. Test for the above.
2808 * tests/tail-2/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add append-only.
2809 * tests/Makefile.am (check-root): Add tail-2/append-only
2811 2006-01-21 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2813 * NEWS: Mention fts-related improvements and bug fixes.
2815 2006-01-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2817 * tests/fmt/basic (pfx-1, pfx-2): New tests, to demonstrate the bug
2818 reported as http://bugs.debian.org/147577. Forwarded by Thomas Hood.
2820 2006-01-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2822 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-from-unreadable.
2824 2006-01-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2826 Now that fts no longer changes the current working directory, adjust
2827 its clients accordingly -- note that du.c uses fts but doesn't need
2828 any adjustment, since it doesn't operate on the actual files,
2829 but rather just uses the stat buffers provided by fts.
2831 * src/chown-core.c: Include "openat.h".
2832 Don't include "lchown.h".
2833 (restricted_chown): Accept a new parameter, CWD_FD, and use it in
2834 calling openat, lchownat, chownat, rather than open, lchown, chown.
2836 * src/chmod.c: Include "openat.h".
2837 (process_file): Use chmodat (fts->fts_cwd_fd,... in place of chmod (...
2839 * tests/du/long-from-unreadable: New test, to exercise one small
2842 2006-01-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2844 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add comments discouraging the
2845 addition of new directories under tests/.
2847 * tests/acl: Redirect stdin to /dev/null. Otherwise, FreeBSD 5.0's
2850 2006-01-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2852 * tests/du/long-sloop: Adjust not to hard-code the expected
2853 diagnostic corresponding to ELOOP. Solaris' diagnostic differs
2854 from that of GNU libc. Reported by Paul Eggert.
2856 * tests/du/long-sloop: Create file at end of symlink chain.
2858 * tests/misc/test: New file, with a test for one of the
2859 bugs fixed by yesterday's test.c changes.
2860 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add test.
2862 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2864 * tests/du/long-sloop: New file. Test for today's fts.c bug fix.
2865 That bug could make du -L, chgrp -L, or chown -L fail to diagnose
2866 a very long sequence of symbolic links (not necessarily a loop).
2867 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-sloop.
2869 2006-01-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2871 * src/test.c (test_syntax_error): Append a newline. All callers
2872 changed, except for the ones that didn't already append a newline.
2873 Bug reported by Eric Blake.
2875 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2877 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC): Now that verify_true is no longer
2878 void, cast its result to void, to avoid gcc's warning that
2879 ``left-hand operand of comma expression has no effect''.
2880 (DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE, X2REALLOC): Likewise.
2882 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2884 * tests/chmod/no-x: Add a test for today's fts.c fix.
2886 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change)
2888 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Use DTTOIF only if it's defined.
2889 This is necessary for Dragonfly. Patch by Joerg Sonnenberger.
2891 2006-01-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2893 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE):
2894 Use verify_true instead of verify_expr, to sync with gnulib.
2896 2006-01-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2898 * src/date.c (usage): Adjust the formatting of the entries for
2899 %::z and %:::z (separate with two spaces, not one) so that help2man
2900 formats them properly. Reported by Philip Rowlands.
2902 2006-01-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2904 * configure.ac (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Add.
2906 2006-01-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2908 * Makefile.maint (copyright-check): Use date +%Y in place of
2911 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove `static' attribute on local `status'.
2912 First off, the attribute should have been `volatile' (not static)
2913 to avoid longjmp-related risk of clobber. Secondly, now there is
2914 no longer any risk of a local variable being clobbered, so there's
2915 no need for any attribute at all.
2917 2006-01-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2919 * src/remove.c: Give a few functions the inline attribute.
2920 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use gotos to avoid some duplication.
2921 (AD_push): Rewrite an assertion so that the entire computation
2922 goes away when assertions are turned off.
2924 * src/tail.c (ENOSYS) [!defined ENOSYS]: Don't define here.
2925 It's already defined in "system.h".
2926 * Makefile.maint: Add a FIXME comment.
2928 2006-01-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2930 * ChangeLog: Remove entries from 2005-10-22 and earlier.
2931 * ChangeLog-2005: New file, for entries up to version 5.92.
2933 2006-01-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2935 * tests/du/no-x: Also allow a slightly different diagnostic -- the
2936 one you get when using openat-enabled fts.c and du (coming soon).
2937 * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise.
2938 * tests/chgrp/no-x: Likewise.
2940 * src/system.h (O_DIRECTORY) [!defined O_DIRECTORY]: Define.
2942 2006-01-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2944 * src/chown-core.c (RC_do_ordinary_chown): New enum value.
2945 (restricted_chown): Return it, if the file cannot be accessed due
2946 to EPERM, or if no uid or gid are required, or if the file is
2947 neither a directory nor a regular file. Rewrite to avoid gotos.
2948 (change_file_owner): Handle RC_do_ordinary_chown case.
2949 Rewrite to avoid gotos.
2950 * tests/chgrp/basic: Make sure we can change the group of
2953 * src/date.c (usage): Explain %g, %G, and %V a bit better.
2955 2006-01-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2957 * src/copy.c (set_owner): Correct a comment.
2959 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Change warning to say that --retry
2960 is useful `mainly' (not `only') when following by name.
2961 Reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/273781
2963 2006-01-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2965 * NEWS: Document that mkfifo and mknod -m no longer set special bits.
2966 * src/copy.c: Include lchmod.h.
2967 (copy_internal): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
2968 * src/cp.c: Include lchmod.h.
2969 (re_protect, make_dir_parents_private): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
2970 * src/mkdir.c: Include lchmod.h.
2971 (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
2972 (main): Use lchmod rather than chmod. Don't use lchmod unless the
2973 new mode contains bits outside the 777 range.
2974 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
2975 (main): If -m is given, don't invoke chmod; use umask 0 instead.
2976 Report an error if -m asks for bits outside the 777 range.
2977 * src/mknod.c (usage, main): Likewise.
2979 * src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: Undo 2005-12-19 changes.
2981 2005-12-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
2983 * Makefile.maint (sc_obsolete_symbols): Prohibit use of O_NDELAY.
2984 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): New rule.
2985 (syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list.
2986 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: New empty file.
2987 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
2989 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Define in terms of $(srcdir).
2991 * cp.c, df.c, link.c, mknod.c, nice.c, sleep.c, unlink.c:
2992 Don't include <assert.h>; it wasn't used.
2994 2005-12-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
2996 * src/chown-core.c (restricted_chown):
2997 Don't try O_WRONLY unless O_RDONLY failed wth EACCES.
2998 * src/remove.c (fd_to_subdirp): Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTY
2999 | O_NOFOLLOW too, for consistency with other dir-openers.
3000 Use POSIX-preferred O_NONBLOCK rather than O_NDELAY.
3001 (is_empty_dir): Likewise.
3002 * src/shred.c (wipename): Likewise. Don't bother trying to open
3003 dir for writing, since POSIX prohibits it.
3005 2005-12-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3007 * tests/help-version: Redirect stderr to /dev/full, to suppress
3008 write error diagnostic.
3010 2005-12-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3012 * src/mkdir.c, src/mknod.c, src/mkfifo.c (main)
3013 Avoid a minor race condition when `-m MODE' is specified, by using
3014 open, fchown, and close rather than just chown. To do that reliably --
3015 even with an overly restrictive umask -- ensure that each mkdir,
3016 mknod and mkfifo call uses a mode including at least owner-read access.
3017 * src/mknod.c (main): When `-m MODE' is specified, exit nonzero if
3018 the subsequent chown (or equivalent open,fchown,close) fails.
3019 * tests/misc/mknod: New tests.
3020 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mknod.
3022 2005-12-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3024 * src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Open with O_NDELAY, so we don't hang,
3025 e.g., on a named pipe.
3026 (OPEN_NO_FOLLOW_SYMLINK): Remove definition. Use O_NOFOLLOW in
3027 place of all uses, since it is guaranteed (system.h) to be defined.
3029 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>
3031 Add POSIX ACL support
3032 * src/ls.c: Switch back from HAVE_ACL to USE_ACL: The acl() syscall
3033 is no requirement for ACL support; particularly, it does not exist
3034 on systems that have POSIX ACLs.
3035 * src/copy.h (cp_option_init) [umask_kill]: Remove member.
3036 * src/cp.c (umask_kill): With default acls, the umask is not to be
3037 applied. Remove umask_kill, don't change the process umask, and let
3038 the kernel apply the umask where appropriate.
3039 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Fix logic for POSIX ACLs.
3040 * src/copy.c (get_dest_mode): Remove; it is obsolete after removing
3042 (copy_reg, copy_internal): Use copy_acl and set_acl
3043 instead of fchown/chown. Fix the logic for POSIX ACLs.
3044 (chown_succeded): Remove; we now always copy acls and
3045 preserve S_ISUID, S_ISGID, and S_ISVTX when needed, no matter if we
3046 did a chown before or not.
3047 * src/mv.c, src/install.c (cp_option_init): Don't set umask_kill member.
3048 * src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, vdir_LDADD, cp_LDADD,
3049 mv_LDADD, ginstall_LDADD): On systems with an ACL library, arrange
3050 to link with it via $(LIB_ACL), for the utilities that need it.
3052 2005-12-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3054 * src/remove.c (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__REQUIRE): Remove.
3055 (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__ALLOW_FAILURE): Likewise.
3056 (fd_to_subdirp): Remove openat_cwd_restore_allow_failure arg; its
3057 value is now signified by whether cwd_errno is null.
3058 (fd_to_subdirp, remove_dir, rm_1); Change cwd failure indicator from
3059 pointer-to-bool to pointer-to-errno-value. All callers changed.
3060 (rm_1): Don't bother setting a local cwd failure flag and then
3061 ORing it into the caller's. Just set the caller's.
3062 (rm): Use cwd failure errno value to print a slightly-better
3065 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3067 * src/stat.c (print_it): Properly handle a backslash at the
3068 end of a --printf format string. Reported by Paul Eggert.
3069 * tests/misc/stat-printf (end-bs): Add a test for the above.
3071 2005-12-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3073 * tests/acl: Port to pre-POSIX shells like Solaris 8 /bin/sh.
3074 Don't assume /etc/passwd contains user names; use 'id' instead.
3076 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3078 stat: revert behavior of --format=FMT (-c)
3079 stat: add new option: --printf=FMT
3080 * NEWS: Mention this.
3081 * src/stat.c (isodigit, octtobin, hextobin): Define.
3082 (PRINTF_OPTION): Define.
3083 (interpret_backslash_escapes, trailing_delim): New globals.
3084 (usage): Document them. Alphabetize on long option names.
3085 (print_esc_char): New function.
3086 (print_it): Rewrite, in order to handle backslash escapes.
3087 (main): Handle new option. Set globals for --format, too.
3089 * tests/misc/stat-printf: Test --printf and --format.
3090 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-printf.
3092 2005-12-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3094 * NEWS: sort now reports incompatible options.
3095 * src/sort.c (incompatible_options, check_ordering_compatibility):
3097 (main): Use them. Don't bother with a usage message for
3098 "sort -c a b", for consistency with other error diagnostics.
3099 * tests/sort/Test.pm (incompat1, incompat2, incompat3, incompat4):
3102 * src/cat.c (main): Undo previous change. close_stdout already
3103 does the check, so the previous change wasn't necessary.
3105 2005-12-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3107 * src/cat.c (main): Check for close (STDOUT_FILENO) failure.
3109 2005-12-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3111 Install a more-conservative approach for sort -R. It's the
3112 same basic idea as the existing code, except it uses the full ISAAC
3113 approach (called the "more kosher" approach in the existing comments).
3114 This makes "sort -R" quite a bit slower (about a factor of 2 on my
3115 little tests involving 10000 lines on a 2.4 GHz P4), but I think it's
3116 better to be conservative here at first, and review any performance
3117 improvements carefully.
3118 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add src/rand-isaac.c.
3119 * src/rand-isaac.h: Remove. All uses now simply include rand-isaac.c.
3120 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Remove rand-isaac.h.
3121 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): Remove.
3122 (EXTRA_DIST): Add rand-isaac.c.
3123 * src/rand-isaac.c: Revert to what used to be in shred.c, without
3124 changing it to allow for varying numbers of words in the state.
3125 Alter so that we include rand-isaac.c directly rather than
3126 compiling it and linking to it. Don't include config.h or
3127 system.h; that's the includer's responsibility.
3128 Omit functions that are specific to shred.
3129 (ISAAC_LOG, ISAAC_WORDS, ISAAC_BYTES, struct isaac_state, ind):
3130 (isaac_step, struct irand_state):
3131 Resurrect these, with the same defns that used to be in shred.c.
3132 (ISAAC_SIZE, isaac_new, isaac_copy): Remove.
3133 (isaac_refill, isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, irand_init, irand32):
3135 (struct isaac_state, isaac_refill, isaac_mix, isaac_init):
3136 (isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, isaac_seed_finish, isaac_seed):
3137 (irand_init, irand32, irand_mod):
3138 Number of words is constant again.
3139 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Move to shred.c.
3140 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.c rather than rand-isaac.h.
3141 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
3142 * src/shred.c (fillrand, dopass, main): Undo previous change.
3143 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Moved back here,
3145 * src/sort.c: Don't include md5.h; it wasn't needed.
3146 (struct keyfield): Rename random_hash to random, for consistency
3147 with the other member names. All uses changed.
3148 (usage): Tweak wording to mention STRING for --seed option.
3149 (short_options): Rorder for consistency with other programs.
3150 (rand_state): Now a struct, not a pointer to one. All uses changed.
3151 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): Remove.
3152 (get_hash): Remove comments around resbuf size, since we can assume C89.
3153 Use a "more-kosher" (but slower) approach of invoking isaac_refill.
3154 (keycompare): Adjust to the new get_hash.
3156 (badfieldspec): Omit recently-introduced comment; it isn't needed.
3157 (main): Don't set need_random simply because gkey has it set; that
3158 doesn't necessarily mean we'll need random numbers.
3159 Redo seeding to match new get_hash approach.
3161 2005-12-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3163 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add rand-isaac.h.
3165 Avoid shred segfault on 64-bit systems.
3166 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_refill): Don't try to negate a
3167 local of type uint32_t. Make the local an `int' instead.
3169 * NEWS: Mention sort's new options.
3171 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_mix): Declare to be static.
3172 Mark all other functions as `extern' so the tight-scope
3173 part of `make distcheck' passes once again.
3174 * src/rand-isaac.h (isaac_mix): Remove declaration.
3176 * src/sort.c (get_hash): Change position of `*' in parameter
3177 type to conform with convention.
3178 (main): Split a long line so it fits in 80 columns.
3179 (keycompare): Remove stray SPACE before TAB that was
3180 causing `make distcheck' to fail.
3182 * src/shred.c: Don't include gethrxtime.h. No longer needed.
3184 * tests/misc/sort-rand: New file: basic tests for the new options.
3185 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sort-rand.
3187 2005-12-10 Frederik Eaton <frederik@ofb.net>
3189 * src/Makefile.am (sort_LDADD): Add $(LIB_GETHRXTIME).
3190 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): New macros, so we compile rand-isaac.c.
3191 * src/rand-isaac.c: New file, containing ISAAC code that was in shred.c.
3192 Make state size runtime-configurable.
3193 (isaac_new, isaac_copy): New functions.
3194 * src/rand-isaac.h: New file.
3195 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.h. Move ISAAC code to rand-isaac.c.
3196 (fillrand, main): Adjust to the fact that the state size is now
3197 runtime-configurable.
3198 * src/sort.c (short_options, long_options, WORDS, keycompare, main):
3199 (usage): Add options --random-sort and --seed to implement a random
3201 Include md5.h and rand-isaac.h.
3202 (get_hash): New function.
3203 (rand_state): New var.
3204 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): New macros.
3206 2005-12-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3208 * tests/dd/misc: Add test for dd iflags=noatime.
3210 2005-12-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3212 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention white space vs -b and -t options.
3215 2005-12-09 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
3217 * src/test.c (main): Fix misleading comment.
3219 2005-12-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3221 * NEWS: Mention dd's new noatime flag.
3222 * src/system.h (O_NOATIME): Define to 0 if not already defined.
3223 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): Add support for noatime flag.
3225 2005-12-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3227 Distribute the cvsu script, used only by `make syntax-check'.
3228 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/cvsu.
3229 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use build-aux/cvsu, now that we
3230 distribute a copy of this script.
3231 * .x-sc_unmarked_diagnostics: Add build-aux/cvsu.
3233 * tests/mv/acl: exit-77 before the trap, not after, if we fail
3234 to create a temporary directory on another partition.
3235 From Andreas Gruenbacher.
3237 2005-12-06 Tomas Pospisek <tpo@sourcepole.ch> (tiny change)
3239 * man/basename.x: Cross-reference to dirname and readlink.
3240 * man/dirname.x: Cross-reference to basename and readlink.
3242 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher
3244 * src/copy.c [!HAVE_FCHOWN]: Define fchown(...) to -1.
3245 (set_owner, preserve_author): New functions, factored out of copy_reg.
3246 (copy_reg): Use them.
3247 (copy_internal): Use them here, too.
3249 2005-12-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3251 * src/sleep.c (usage): Say what happens with two or more arguments.
3252 Suggested by Justin Pryzby.
3254 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Move decl of `upsecs' into scope
3257 2005-12-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3259 * src/rm.c (long_opts): Change the name of each undocumented, for-
3260 testing-only option to start with `-', so that it cannot render
3261 ambiguous any prefix it happens to share with some other option name.
3262 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
3263 * src/head.c (long_options): Likewise.
3264 * src/tail.c (long_options): Likewise.
3266 * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: Update uses of undocumented, for-
3267 testing-only --presume* options to start with `---'.
3268 * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Likewise.
3269 * tests/rm/dir-no-w: Likewise.
3270 * tests/rm/isatty: Likewise.
3272 2005-11-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3274 * Makefile.maint: Add a comment about cvsu.
3276 2005-11-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3278 * NEWS: df updates for "none", "proc", inaccessible file systems.
3279 * src/df.c (show_point): Ignore inaccessible file systems.
3280 (usage): -a includes dummy file systems, not size-0 file systems.
3282 * src/od.c (unsigned_long_long_int): Renamed from ulonglong_t,
3283 to avoid collision with POSIX name space. All uses changed.
3285 2005-11-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3287 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add acl to the list.
3288 * tests/acl: Add `$0: ' prefix to diagnostics.
3290 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/buffer-lcm.c to the list.
3292 2005-11-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3294 * src/copy.c: Improve performance a bit by optimizing away
3295 unnecessary system calls and going to a block size of at least
3296 8192 (on normal hosts, anyway). This improved performance 5% on my
3297 Debian stable host (2.4.27 kernel, x86, copying from root
3298 ext3 file system to itself).
3299 Include "buffer-lcm.h".
3300 (copy_reg): Omit last argument. All callers changed.
3301 Use xmalloc to allocate rather than trusting alloca
3302 (which is unwise with large block sizes).
3303 Declare locals more locally, if possible.
3304 Use uintptr_t words instead of int words, for a bit more speed
3305 when looking for null blocks on 64-bit hosts.
3306 Optimize away reads of zero bytes on regular files.
3307 In the typical case, insist on 8 KiB buffers, at least.
3308 Avoid unnecessary extra call to fstat when checking for sparse files.
3309 Avoid now-unnecessary cast to off_t, and "0L".
3310 Avoid unnecessary test of *new_dst when checking for same owner
3313 2005-11-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3315 * src/remove.c (rm): Don't assume C99 for-loop syntax.
3317 2005-11-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3319 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Remove debugging cruft.
3321 * tests/rm/unread2 (rm): Change expected diagnostic,
3322 `cannot open directory' to `cannot remove', to align with
3324 * tests/rm/rm2: Ensure that rm now continues removing entries
3325 even after certain types of failure.
3327 * src/remove.c: Rewrite. Now, this module is reentrant on systems
3328 that provide openat (Solaris), and on systems like Linux+procfs
3329 where our openat emulation code is reentrant. This also fixes a
3330 few low-probability leaks and eliminates some code that could,
3331 in very unusual circumstances, cause rm() (via a callee) to exit.
3332 * NEWS: Mention this.
3334 * configure.ac: Put copyright dates all on one line so the
3335 emacs function that updates them works properly.
3337 2005-11-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3339 * configure.ac (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Add. Needed for CVS Automake.
3340 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
3341 (AC_PROG_CC_STDC): Use this instead of AC_PROG_CC, so that
3342 we get a standard-conforming compiler. This relies on the new
3343 m4/c.m4 file. Note that it's a bit tricky, since c.m4 doesn't
3344 define AC_PROG_CC_STDC; we are relying on Autoconf 2.59 internals.
3345 m4/c.m4 can go away with Autoconf 2.60 comes out.
3347 2005-11-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3349 * src/remove.c (AD_mark_helper): Make a `char *' parameter `const'.
3350 (AD_mark_current_as_unremovable): Likewise, but for a local.
3353 * tests/mv/acl: Let traps handle removing temporary directories.
3355 Expect acl-related tests to fail, until the corresponding
3356 patches are committed.
3357 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Add acl.
3358 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Likewise.
3360 ACL tests, from Andreas Gruenbacher.
3361 * tests/acl, tests/mv/acl, tests/cp/acl: New files.
3362 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acl.
3363 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add acl.
3365 * src/ls.c (basename_is_dot_or_dotdot): Correct wording in comment.
3367 2005-11-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

3373 2005-11-16 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3375 * tests/cp/fail-perm: Accommodate HPUX. It appears to fail
3376 with EACCES rather than EPERM. Reported by Peter O'Gorman here:
3377 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/5766
3378 This also affects AIX 4.3.3, according to Ralf Wildenhues, in

3409 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3411 * NEWS: Merge in changes from b5_9x branch.
3413 2005-11-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3415 * NEWS: ls now defaults to --time-style='locale', which in turn acts
3416 like --time-style='posix-long-iso' if the locale settings are messed up.
3417 * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Implement this.
3419 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

3427 Reported by Vitaly A. Ostanin.
3429 2005-11-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3431 * src/ln.c: Include filenamecat.c.
3432 (FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT): Remove.
3433 (do_link): Remove last arg DEST_IS_DIR. All callers changed.
3434 (main): Use file_name_concat, base_name, and strip_trailing_slashes
3435 instead of FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT. This simplifies the code, and avoids
3438 2005-11-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3440 * src/du.c (process_file): Don't overflow for files of size >= 2^31
3441 on systems with stat.st_blocks of a signed 32-bit type.
3442 This bug causes trouble on some AIX 5.1 systems.
3443 Report and trivial patch from Paul Townsend:
3444 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2005-11/msg00033.html>

3463 * tests/dd/skip-seek: Fix typo in comment: s/fileutils/coreutils.
3464 From Andreas Schwab.
3466 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Redirect stderr to /dev/null so the
3467 `M+N records in/out' lines don't pollute `make check' output.
3469 * tests/dd/skip-seek (sk-seek4): New test, to exercise the bug
3470 fixed on 2005-10-31. This test uses the new, IN_PIPE specifier.
3471 * tests/Coreutils.pm: Accept a new type of input specifier: IN_PIPE,
3472 to indicate that the input file should be piped into the command
3473 under test (via `cat FILE | $prog ...').
3475 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Emit a better diagnostic when rm
3476 (without -r) fails to remove a directory on a non-Linux system.

3478 functions like priv_allocset). Reported by Keith Thompson.
3480 * tests/rm/dir-nonrecur: New file/test for the above fix.
3481 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add dir-nonrecur.
3483 2005-11-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3485 * NEWS: "tail -c 2 FILE" and "touch 0101000000" now operate as
3486 POSIX 1002.1-2001 requires.
3487 * src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Implement this.
3488 Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre.
3489 * src/touch.c (main): Pass PDS_PRE_2000 to posixtime.
3490 * tests/tail/Test.pm (c-2, c-2-minus, c2, c2-minus): New tests.
3491 (test_vector): Add special cases for _POSIX2_VERSION, and
3492 regularize the old ones a bit.
3493 * tests/touch/obsolescent: Add y2000 test.
3495 2005-10-31 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3497 * src/dd.c (skip): Fix off-by-one error reported by
3498 Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
3500 2005-10-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
3502 * tests/mkdir/p-3: Require that the test be run as non-root.
3503 Problem and trivial fix reported by Theodoros V. Kalamatianos.
3505 2005-10-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

3518 * tests/dircolors/simple (other-wr): Add an explicit test for
3519 the dircolors bug (NULL-dereference) fixed yesterday.
3521 2005-10-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3523 * src/tac.c (tac_file): When determining whether a file is seekable,
3524 also test whether it is a tty. Using only the lseek-based test would
3525 give a false positive on Solaris. Reported by Peter Fales.
3527 2005-10-24 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
3529 * tests/install/d-slashdot: New test, for "install -d" failure.
3530 * tests/install/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add d-slashdot.
3531 * tests/mkdir/p-slashdot: New test, for "mkdir -p" failure.

3537 Anonymous report and patch from
3538 http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=14849
3540 * src/dircolors.c: Add compile-time assertion that the slack_codes
3541 and ls_codes arrays have the same number of elements. This would
3542 have prevented the above-fixed bug.
3544 * src/expand.c (parse_tab_stops): Add a comment to make this function
3545 identical to the one in unexpand.c.
3546 * src/unexpand.c (parse_tab_stops): Adjust syntax to make this function
3547 identical to the one in expand.c.
3549 * src/expand.c (next_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin.
3551 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
3553 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check, main): Use ptr_align rather than
3554 a dangerous pointer-value-to-`unsigned' cast.
3555 * NEWS: mention the new sha* programs.
3556 * AUTHORS: Add new sha* programs.
3558 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>

3570 * tests/misc/sha224sum, tests/misc/sha256sum: New files.
3571 * tests/misc/sha384sum, tests/misc/sha512sum: New files.
3572 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add new sha224sum, sha256sum,
3573 sha384sum, sha512sum test scripts here rather that each in its
3576 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>
3578 * tests/sha1sum/basic-1 (million-a): Add the "million a's" test (one
3579 of the FIPS test vectors).
3581 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
