3 * man/chmod.x: Correct the description of the sticky bit. Reported
4 by Chris Moore via Ian Jackson in <http://bugs.debian.org/376745>.
6 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't work around old NFS clients like
7 SunOS-4.1.4 and Irix 5.3 that set errno to values like EIO and
8 ENOTEMPTY upon failed rename. Otherwise, we risk misinterpreting
9 a banal failure as a recursive move-into-self failure.
10 Reported by Florent Bayle in <http://bugs.debian.org/376749>.
12 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
14 2006-07-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
16 Plug another unusual leak.
17 (AD_mark_helper): Free malloc'd filename if hash_insert says
18 that string is already in the hash table.
20 The dev/inode of the topmost directory in each hierarchy were not
22 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Don't call cycle_check here.
23 (AD_push): Call it from here instead.
26 * src/remove.c (AD_stack_clear): New function.
28 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Free *prev_dir just before longjmp.
30 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/*/Makefile.am: (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
31 Add $VG_PATH_PREFIX as a prefix to $PATH
33 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add CDPATH and POSIXLY_CORRECT.
34 * tests/Makefile.am (evar-check): Remove rule.
35 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove .env-warn.
36 * tests/.env-warn: Remove file. No longer used.
37 Suggestion from Eric Blake.
39 2006-07-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
41 * src/system.h: Include <stdint.h> unconditionally, since we
42 now assume the stdint module.
44 2006-07-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
46 * NEWS: With no operand, 'tail -f' now silently ignores the '-f'
47 only if standard input is a FIFO or pipe and POSIXLY_CORRECT is set.
48 * src/tail.c (main): Implement this.
49 * tests/tail/Test.pm (f-pipe-1): Renamed from f-1.
50 (test_vector): Set POSIXLY_CORRECT for the f-pipe-* tests.
52 2006-07-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
54 * src/ln.c (do_link): Use new, shorter URL, for ag-review link.
56 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add ^lib/xstrtold\.c$, so make distcheck
59 2006-06-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
61 * NEWS: seq now uses long double internally rather than double.
62 It now defaults to a minimal fixed point format if possible.
63 It lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, %G.
64 * src/Makefile.am (seq_LDADD): Remove $(SEQ_LIBM); add $(POW_LIB).
65 * src/seq.c: Don't include <math.h> or <xstrtol.h>; no longer needed.
66 (isfinite) [!defined isfinite]: New macro.
67 (separator, terminator): Now points to const.
68 (first, step, last): Remove.
69 (usage): Update to match new behavior.
70 (struct operand, operand): New type.
71 (scan_arg): Renamed from scan_double_arg, since we no longer use double.
73 Compute and return a value of type operand, not double.
74 (long_double_format): Renamed from valid_format, and now returns a
75 new format with an "L" added if needed, if the original format was
76 valid. Allow %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats.
77 (print_numbers): Take numeric values as args rather than from globals.
78 Print long double, not double.
79 (get_width_format): Remove.
80 (get_default_format): New function.
81 (main): Implement new way of calculating default format.
82 Don't worry about locale's representation of the decimal point, since
83 the arguments are always processed in the C locale.
84 * tests/seq/basic (neg-2): Adjust to new default format.
85 (eq-wid-1, eq-wid-2): Resurrect these tests, since the new
86 implementation should do the right thing.
88 2006-06-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
90 * tests/stty/basic-1: Work around an intermittent test failure
91 on HP-UX 11.11. Report and analysis from Bob Proulx.

94 2006-06-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
96 * NEWS: Support obsolete usages like "sort +1 -2" even when
97 conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001, since this is a pure extension to
98 POSIX. Problem reported by Christian in:
99 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00220.html
100 * src/sort.c (main): Implement this.
102 * src/system.h (CLOSEDIR): Remove. All uses changed to closedir.
103 Autoconf 2.60 says this stuff was obsolete.
105 2006-06-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
107 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Regenerate, to remove fuzz.
109 2006-06-28 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
111 * tests/mv/i-link-no: Work around HP-UX /bin/sh tracing problem
112 (set -x when VERBOSE=yes) when stderr is redirected before stdout
113 causing shell tracing of the stdout redirection to be written to
114 the stderr file. Avoid problem and test failure on HP-UX by
115 redirecting stderr last.
116 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Order shell file redirections for
117 stderr and stdout in the common style.
120 2006-06-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
122 * tests/misc/cat-proc: Try to avoid any spurious numeric
123 differences in frequently-changing /proc/cpuinfo.
124 Reported by Nelson Beebe.
126 2006-06-26 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
128 Attempt rmdir (actually, unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR) upon any
129 fd_to_subdirp failure, not just when errno == EACCES.
130 * src/remove.c (remove_dir): Use unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR, not
131 rmdir, here, even though rmdir may happen to be adequate.
133 * NEWS: rm no longer fails to remove an empty, unreadable directory
134 * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): If we can't open a directory,
135 and the failure is not being ignored, try to remove the directory
136 with rmdir (aka unlinkat-with-AT_REMOVEDIR), in case it's empty.
137 Problem report and test case from Paul Eggert in
138 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/7425>.
140 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test, for the above.
142 Avoid a segfault for wc --files0=- < /dev/null.
143 * src/wc.c (compute_number_width): Return right away if nfiles == 0.
145 2006-06-25 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
147 * NEWS: wc accepts a new option --files0-from=FILE, where FILE
148 contains a list of NUL-separated file names.
150 * src/wc.c: Include "readtokens.h".
151 (usage): Describe the new option, and adjust the `Usage':
152 with this option, no FILE may be specified on the command line.
153 (main): Handle the new option.
154 * tests/misc/wc-files0: New tests, for the above.
155 * tests/misc/wc-files0-from: Likewise.
156 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add wc-files0.
158 2006-06-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
160 * src/md5sum.c (DIGEST_BUFFER): Remove now-unused definitions.
162 2006-06-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
164 * src/tee.c (tee_files): Rename from tee, to avoid conflict with
165 the function in glibc's <fcntl.h>. Reported by Andreas Schwab.
167 2006-06-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
169 * Makefile.cfg (local-checks-to-skip): Add changelog-check,
170 so this check is not run as part of "make distcheck".
172 2006-06-18 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
174 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Fix typo (s/neq/ne/) in previous change.
176 2006-06-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
178 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Make error output a little clearer.
180 2006-06-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
182 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Skip this test on systems without openat
183 support. Reported by Bob Proulx.
185 2006-06-15 Bob Proulx <bob@proulx.com> (tiny change)
187 * tests/misc/mknod: Improve permission checks to handle
188 running mkdir test in set-gid directories.
190 2006-06-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
192 * tests/du/basic: Revamp not to hard-code file system block sizes.
194 2006-06-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
196 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass $(PERL), for
199 2006-06-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
201 * .gitignore: New file.
202 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .gitignore.
204 Setting TIME_STYLE=long-iso in the environment would make the
205 cp/same-file test fail.
206 * tests/envvar-check (vars): Add TIME_STYLE to the list.
207 * tests/cp/same-file: Revert last change.
208 Source the envvar-check script, to ensure that TIME_STYLE
209 settings don't affect these tests.
211 2006-06-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
213 * tests/cp/same-file: Execute 'ls' in the C locale, so that it
214 uses POSIX time stamp formats. Problem reported by John Nixon in
215 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-06/msg00062.html>.
217 2006-06-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
219 * NEWS: Mention the AIX-strndup-bug vs. dircolors workaround.
221 Require a "Version N.M" line at the top of the ChangeLog
222 file only when making the actual release, not when running
224 * Makefile.maint (maintainer-distcheck): Don't depend on
226 (alpha beta major): Depend on it here, instead.
228 2006-06-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
230 Ensure that cat works with any of the options, -A -v -e -E -T,
231 when applied to files in /proc and /sys, even when the FIONREAD
232 ioctl produces nonsensical results. Before this change, cat would
233 produce no output (or truncated output), for some linux kernels.
235 * src/cat.c (write_pending): New function, factored out of cat.
236 (cat): Also interpret a negative ioctl/FIONREAD count as indicating
237 that there are bytes to read. Some versions of linux-2.6.16 do that.
238 Write any pending output before returning.
239 Reported by Dan Jacobson in <http://bugs.debian.org/370583>.
240 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
241 * tests/misc/cat-proc: New file. Test for the above.
242 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cat-proc.
244 2006-06-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
246 * src/expr.c (eval4): Detect overflow properly when multiplying
249 2006-06-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
251 * NEWS: The 'expr' command now detects and reports integer overflow.
252 (It would be better to use extended precision instead, but that
254 * src/expr.c (integer_overflow): New function.
255 (eval4, eval3): Check for integer overflow.
257 2006-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
259 Fix problems when building with Solaris/SVR4/etc. make, which uses a
260 different and somewhat bogus implementation of VPATH. In the
261 directory tests/misc, rename tests whose names might appear in the
262 Automake-generated rules. For example, we can't use a test named
263 'test', since Automake generates a rule that contains the text
264 "if test -f ./$$tst; ...", and this might expand to something like
265 "if ../../../coreutils-6.0/tests/misc/test -f ./$$test; ...",
266 which executes the 'test' script rather than the 'test' command.
267 * tests/misc/false-status: Renamed from tests/misc/false.
268 * tests/misc/pwd-long: Renamed from tests/misc/pwd.
269 * tests/misc/sort-merge: Renamed from tests/misc/sort.
270 ($prog): Set to 'sort' rather than to $PROG.
271 * tests/misc/test-diag: Renamed from tests/misc/test.
272 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (PROG): Take the basename of $$tst,
273 in case Solaris make has prepended the directory.
274 (TESTS): Adjust to above renamings.
275 * tests/misc/expand: Don't assign to PROG; no longer needed
276 now that Makefile.am sets PROG to the basename.
277 * tests/misc/fold: Likewise.
279 2006-06-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
281 Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the
282 link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link.
283 * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use
284 the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing.
285 Based on the patch by Aurelien Jarno: <http://bugs.debian.org/329451>
286 * tests/cp/link-no-deref: New file/test for the above.
287 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add link-no-deref.
288 * NEWS: Mention the change (doesn't affect Linux).
290 2006-06-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
292 Fix some porting problems in the test cases reported by
293 Ralf Wildenhues for HP-UX 11.23 in:
294 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00238.html
295 * tests/help-version: Don't assume that \< \> works in sed.
296 * tests/misc/close-stdout: Don't assume that >&- works.
297 Add a /dev/full test.
298 * tests/touch/no-create-missing: Don't assume that >&- works.
300 2006-05-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
302 * src/ls.c (usage): Add `v' to the list of sorting-related options.
305 2006-05-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
307 * tests/cp/fail-perm: source lang-default.
308 * tests/rm/inaccessible: Likewise.
310 2006-05-28 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
312 * tests/rm/inaccessible: AIX 4.3.3 gives a different diagnostic.
313 Recognize it, too. Reported by Ralf Wildenhues, in
314 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00192.html
316 2006-05-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
318 * src/chgrp.c: Support new options: --preserve-root and
319 --no-preserve-root. Somehow this program was skipped when those
320 options were added to chown, chmod, and rm. Reported by
321 vaqflabuopac@spammotel.com in <http://bugs.debian.org/365656>.
322 * NEWS: Mention this.
324 2006-05-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
326 * NEWS: Remove mention of --seed. We'll replace it with something
327 better, and don't want to indicate that it is supported.
328 * src/sort.c (usage): Likewise.
330 2006-05-20 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
332 * src/chmod.c (main): Use FTS_PHYSICAL here, too.
334 * src/du.c (main): Rename local, s/symlink_deref_bit/symlink_deref_bits/
335 and arrange for -D to set fts' FTS_PHYSICAL bit as well as
336 FTS_COMFOLLOW. Spotted by Justin Pryzby.
338 * gnupload: Merge changes from automake, retaining the ""--to...
339 kludge to placate overzealous `make distcheck' check.
341 2006-05-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
343 * src/du.c (main): Don't let -D, -L, or -P turn off the internal
344 FTS_TIGHT_CYCLE_CHECK directory traversal option.
345 Reported by Justin Pryzby in http://bugs.debian.org/367691
347 2006-05-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
349 * src/cp.c (usage): Correct description of -a: s/-dpR/-dpPR/.
352 2006-05-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
354 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: Test two more cases.
356 2006-05-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
358 mv -T DIR EMPTY_DIR no longer fails unconditionally
359 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't manually prohibit a move where
360 the destination is an existing directory. Sometimes doing that is
361 valid. Let the rename system call enforce the rules. That is
362 allowed only when the source is a directory and the destination
363 directory (to be replaced) is empty. Reported by Eric Blake.
364 * tests/mv/no-target-dir: New file/test for this.
365 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add no-target-dir.
366 * NEWS: Mention this.
368 * tests/mv/atomic: New file/test for yesterday's fix.
369 * tests/mv/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add atomic.
371 * tests/du/long-sloop: Avoid harmless `ambiguous redirect' diagnostic.
373 2006-05-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
375 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't explicitly unlink the destination
376 when moving a symlink into the place of an existing non-directory.
377 Reported by Joshua Hudson.
378 * NEWS: mention this.
380 2006-05-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
382 * Makefile.maint (patch-check): Fail if patch generates any output,
383 even merely for changed offsets.
385 * src/c99-to-c89.diff: Adjust to reflect new offsets.
387 * NEWS: Mention changes affecting df, pwd, shred.
389 2006-05-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
391 * tests/ls/stat-vs-dirent: New test, to detect the bogus file
392 system condition where dirent.d_ino != stat.st_ino.
393 * tests/ls/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-vs-dirent.
395 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
397 * tests/ls/inode: Expand to test inode from readdir case.
398 * tests/ls/follow-slink: Expand to test broken links encountered
399 implicitly, favoring Solaris 9 and OpenBSD 3.4 behavior.
401 2006-05-06 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
403 * tests/mv/leak-fd: Work even on case-insensitive file system.
405 2006-05-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
407 * NEWS: Mention the 2006-03-19 pwd-related change that makes
408 lib/getcwd.c work around inconsistent file system dirent.d_ino data.
410 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
412 * src/ls.c (DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS, LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS):
413 Use better macro parameter names: s/basename/key_name/,
414 s/basefunc/key_cmp_func. Fix typo in comment.
416 2006-04-29 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
418 * src/ls.c (main): On systems with d_type, directories_first only
419 implies format_needs_type, not format_needs_stat.
421 2006-05-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
423 * src/ls.c (xstrcoll_df_version, rev_xstrcoll_df_version): Add space
424 after comma in arg list, from Eric Blake.
426 2006-04-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
428 * tests/misc/date (relative-3): New test, derived from a bug
429 report by John Thomas McDole.
431 2006-04-23 Francesco Montorsi <fr_m@hotmail.com>
433 New option for ls: --group-directories-first.
434 It makes ls list directories before files.
435 * NEWS [New features]: Mention it.
436 * src/ls.c (sort_type): Rearrange to use as an array index when
437 choosing sort function; added new sort_numtypes member for
439 (time_type): Add new time_numtypes member for compile-time check.
440 (directories_first): New global variable.
441 (GROUP_DIRECTORIES_FIRST_OPTION): New enum.
442 (long_options): Add --directories-first.
443 (main): Support new option.
444 (is_directory): New function.
445 (extract_dirs_from_files): Use it.
446 (DIRFIRST_CHECK, DEFINE_SORT_FUNCTIONS)
447 (LIST_SORTFUNCTION_VARIANTS): New macros.
448 (sort_functions): New global variable.
449 (sort_files): Use it.
450 (usage): Document new option.
452 2006-04-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
454 * src/shred.c (fillrand): The assertion was way too weak, due to
455 what must be a typo. Strengthen it to its intended value.
456 (dopass): Don't use alloca; it's not worth the aggravation here,
457 since it's used only to get a page-aligned buffer, and page
458 alignment doesn't buy us much here. I'm suspicious that alloca
459 causes problems on some hosts, due to a recent bug report by Adam
460 Waltman: http://bugs.gentoo.org/130246.
462 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
464 * tests/misc/tty-eof: Add new programs, base64, sha224sum, sha256sum,
465 sha384sum, sha512sum.
467 2006-04-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
469 * src/chmod.c (describe_change): Adjust to filemode changes.
470 * src/ls.c (HAVE_ST_DM_MODE): Remove; moved to ../lib/filemode.c.
471 (print_long_format): Use (new) filemodestring rather than
472 (old) mode_string, so that we get more file types right, at least
473 in theory. Adjust to filemode changes.
474 * src/stat.c (human_access): Likewise.
476 2006-04-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
478 * src/ptx.c (main) [DEFAULT_IGNORE_FILE]: Remove code to use a default
479 ignore file. This has never been enabled. Reported by Eric Blake.
481 2006-04-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
483 * src/ln.c (linkfunc): Remove. This method ran into a compiler/linker
484 bug in Interix. Just call symlink or link directly. All uses changed.
485 * src/setuidgid.c (main) [! HAVE_SETGROUPS]: Don't call setgroups.
486 * src/stat.c (USE_STATVFS): New macro.
487 Include <sys/statvfs.h> and use statvfs only if USE_STATVFS.
488 (NAMEMAX_FORMAT): define a bit more clearly, now that the
489 statvfs-using code is a bit more regular.
490 * src/system.h (sync) [!HAVE_SYNC]: New macro.
492 2006-04-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
494 * NEWS: csplit, nl, expr now conform to POSIX better, and are
495 more-compatible with traditional Unix, with respect to regular
497 * src/csplit.c (extract_regexp): Set re_syntax_options to a
498 value that is compatible with what POSIX requires.
499 * src/nl.c (build_type_arg): Likewise.
500 * src/expr.c (docolon): Likewise. Also, don't let anchors match
501 newline; this fixes an incompatibility with tradition and with POSIX.
502 Don't warn about leading ^. POSIX says it is unspecified whether
503 ^ is a special character, which means that implementations can
504 either treat it as special or not, but either way a warning is not
505 allowed (unless the regexp is otherwise invalid). Instead, anchor
506 the expression but treat ^ as an anchor; this is the traditional
507 behavior (e.g., Solaris 10).
508 (eval4, eval3, eval2): Treat non-numeric args, division by zero,
509 and the like as invalid expressions (exit status 2), not as
510 failure of 'expr' (exit status 3). This is more consistent with
512 * tests/expr/basic (fail-a): Adjust exit status to match new expr
513 behavior, for status 2 versus 3.
515 (bre1, bre2, bre3, bre4, bre5, bre6, bre7, bre8, bre9, bre10):
516 (bre11, bre12, bre13, bre14, bre15, bre16, bre17, bre18, bre19, bre20):
517 (bre21, bre22, bre23, bre24, bre25, bre26, bre27, bre28, bre29, bre30):
518 (bre31, bre32, bre33, bre34, bre35, bre36, bre37, bre38, bre39, bre40):
519 (bre41, bre42, bre43, bre44, bre45, bre46, bre47, bre48, bre49, bre50):
520 (bre51, bre52, bre53, bre54, bre55, bre56, bre57, bre58, bre59, bre60):
521 (bre61, bre62): New tests.
522 * tests/misc/csplit: Use \{...\} in test RE, to test that we're
526 * tests/du/long-from-unreachable: Solaris 8 sh doesn't understand
527 "if !". Do not assume that 'sed' can handle long, newline-free input.
528 * tests/du/long-sloop: Likewise. Evaluate expr once, not $n times.
530 2006-04-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
532 Adjust to new regex.h API (with new fastmap type), and clean
533 up the regex storage allocation a bit.
535 * src/csplit.c (struct control): Put re_compiled member at the
536 end, since it's large. Change regexpr member from char * to bool;
537 all uses changed. Add new member fastmap.
538 (extract_regexp): regexp arg is now char const *, not char *.
539 Don't bother duplicating the regular expression; it's not needed.
540 Set fastmap from new fastmap member. Don't bother allocating
541 a buffer, as the regexp code does a better job than we do.
542 * src/expr.c (docolon): Allocate and use a fastmap.
543 Don't bother allocating a buffer.
544 * src/nl.c (body_fastmap, header_fastmap, footer_fastmap):
546 (build_type_arg): New fastmap arg. All uses changed.
547 Don't bother allocating a buffer, but set a fastmap.
548 * src/ptx.c (context_regex_string, word_regex_string): Remove.
549 (context_regex, word_regex): New vars, replacing the above.
551 (struct regex_data): New type.
552 (compile_regex): Renamed from alloc_and_compile_regex, since
553 we no longer allocate storage. Arg is now a struct regex_data *,
554 not a const char *. All uses changed. Don't allocate the fastmap;
555 instead, take it from the caller. Don't convert size_t to int,
556 to avoid arithmetic overflow problems. Don't bother freeing
557 storage afterwards; it's not worth the aggravation.
558 * src/tac.c (compiled_separator_fastmap): New ver.
559 (main): Use it. Don't bother allocating a buffer.
561 2006-03-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
563 * src/dd.c (iwrite): Remove assignment without effect.
564 Reported by Felix Rauch Valenti.

570 * NEWS: Mention this.
572 2006-03-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
574 * src/Makefile.am (uptime_LDADD): Add $(POW_LIB), for uptime's
575 use of strtod. Tiny patch from Nickolai Zeldovich.
577 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
579 * tests/misc/dirname: New file.
580 * tests/basename/Makefile.am: Delete.
581 * tests/basename/basic: Move to...

583 including fixed behavior for //.
584 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Sort. Add basename, dirname.
585 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove basename.
586 * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove tests/basename.
588 Improvements to dirname/basename handling on platforms like
589 cygwin with distinct // and with drive letters.
590 * NEWS: Document new behavior.
591 * src/basename.c (main): Don't strip suffix from file system
593 * src/cp.c (target_directory_operand): Use new last_component.
594 (ASSIGN_BASENAME_STRDUPA): Likewise. Reduce time spent
595 traversing the string.

607 2006-03-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
609 * NEWS: nohup diagnostics are now more precise, and nohup now
610 redirects stderr to nohup.out if stdout is closed and stderr is a tty.
611 * src/nohup.c (main): Implement this.
612 * tests/misc/nohup: Test the new behavior.
614 2006-03-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
616 * src/copy.c (set_author): Rename function, from preserve_author.
618 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use new macro,
619 CYCLE_CHECK_REFLECT_CHDIR_UP, rather than open-coding it.
621 * src/system.h (SAME_INODE): Remove definition.
622 Include "same-inode.h", instead.
624 2006-03-11 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
626 * src/pwd.c (robust_getcwd): Prepend only one slash, not two.
628 2006-03-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
630 Fix a bug whereby a user with write access to a directory being removed
631 could cause the removal of that directory to fail with an erroneous
632 diagnostic about a directory cycle. Reported by Vineet Chadha.
634 * NEWS: Mention this.
635 * src/remove.c (AD_pop_and_chdir): If the directory we're about to
636 leave (and try to rmdir) is the one whose dev_ino is being used to
637 detect a cycle, reset cycle_check_state.dev_ino to that of the parent.
639 2006-03-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
641 * NEWS: Document dd's new 'directory' and 'nolinks' flags.
642 * src/dd.c (set_fd_flags): Handle file-creation flags on file
643 descriptors, rather than ignoring them.
644 * tests/dd/misc: Add test cases for append, nofollow, directory,
645 and nolinks flags. Simplify redirection to /dev/null in some cases.
647 * tests/dd/misc: iflags->iflag. This fixes a typo that meant the
648 noatime test never tested anything.
650 2006-03-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
652 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): New flags directory, nolinks.
653 * src/system.h (O_NOLINKS): Define to 0 if not already defined.
655 * src/ls.c (usage): Mention that -f disables --color.
656 Problem reported by Niels Möller.
658 2006-03-03 Justin Pryzby <pryzbyj@justinpryzby.com>
660 * man/*.x: Add references to syscalls from utilities of the same name.
662 2006-03-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
664 * tests/help-version: Set SHELL, if not already set, in order to
665 avoid failure when `make check' is run through debuild; dircolors
666 would fail due to lack of $SHELL. Reported by Sven Joachim.
668 Make `base64 --wrap=N' work for N=0, and for N larger than SIZE_MAX.
669 * src/base64.c (wrap_write, do_encode, main): Change type of
670 parameters and locals, wrap_column, form size_t to uintmax_t.
671 (main): Adjust to use xstrtoumax, accordingly.
673 2006-03-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
675 Don't fail when run from an environment with SHELL not a Bourne
676 shell, e.g. `env SHELL=/bin/csh make check' would fail this test.
677 * tests/dircolors/simple: Invoke each non-failing test with -b.
678 Reported by Michael Stone.
680 2006-02-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
682 * tests/misc/base64: Derive --decode-using tests from the
685 * tests/misc/base64: Factor out a long constant string.
686 Split lines to stay within 80 columns.
688 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add base64.
689 * tests/misc/base64: Test base64. From Simon Josefsson.
691 * src/base64.c (do_decode): Use correct type for parameter,
692 ignore_garbage: s/size_t/bool/.
694 * src/base64.c: Don't include .h files already included by system.h:
695 <string.h>, <stdlib.h>, <stdbool.h>, <limits.h>, <errno.h>.
696 Include "system.h" before the other lib/*.h header files.
697 Include <sys/types.h> before "system.h".
698 (wrap_write): Remove declaration of unused local, initial_column.
699 (wrap_write): Correct declaration syntax: s/size_t * V/size_t *V/.
701 * README: Add base64 to the list.
703 2006-02-17 Simon Josefsson <jas@extundo.com>
706 * AUTHORS: Mention base64.
708 * man/Makefile.am: Build base64.1.
709 * man/base64.x: New file.
710 * src/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): Add base64.
711 * src/base64.c: New file.
713 2006-02-25 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
715 In ls, avoid calling stat for --inode (-i), when possible.
716 * src/pwd.c (NOT_AN_INODE_NUMBER, D_INO): Move to ...
717 * src/system.h: ... here, for use in ...
718 * src/ls.c (main): ... here. Prefer dirent.d_ino to stat when
720 (gobble_file): Add inode argument.
721 (print_dir): Pass inode if available.
722 (usage): Remove inaccuracy.
724 2006-02-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
726 * TODO: Update/correct some obsolete entries.
728 2006-02-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
730 * doc/coreutils.texi (join invocation): Mention `sort -k 1b,1'.
731 * src/join.c (usage): Likewise.
732 Documentation problem reported by Philip Kensche.
734 2006-02-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
736 * man/rm.x: Update documentation to match previous patch.
738 2006-02-18 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
740 New option for rm: --interactive=once (-I).
741 * NEWS: Document it, along with change to rm --interactive.
742 * TODO: Remove entry for implementing rm -I
743 * src/rm.c (INTERACTIVE_OPTION): New enum value.
744 (interactive_type): New enum.
745 (long_opts): Let interactive take an optional argument.
746 (interactive_args, interactive_types): New option arguments.
747 (usage): Document -I, --interactive=WHEN. Use program_name
748 instead of a basename.

754 2006-02-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
756 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): Make the regular
757 expression match more of the target lines, e.g., those that start with
758 `-S,' (short option followed by a comma) or that include `=[...]'.
759 Patch by Nicolas François.
760 Fix the four offenders thus exposed:
761 * src/join.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
762 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
763 the derived man page properly.
764 * src/pr.c (usage): Likewise.
765 * src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise.
766 * src/install.c (usage): Likewise.
768 2006-02-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
770 * Makefile.maint (alpha beta major): For `make major', ensure that the
771 version string is of the form N.N[.N]*, where N is one or more digits.
773 2006-02-14 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
775 * INSTALL: Update from gnulib.
777 2006-02-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
779 * GNUmakefile (all): Emit diagnostics to stderr, not stdout.
781 2006-02-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

793 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-po-check.
795 rm -r must remove an empty directory, even if it is inaccessible.
796 * src/remove.c (close_preserve_errno): New function.
797 (fd_to_subdirp): Don't print a diagnostic in this function.
798 Do it from the callers instead, unless rmdir succeeds.
799 (remove_cwd_entries, remove_dir): Adjust callers.
800 * tests/rm/empty-inacc: New test for the above.
801 * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add empty-inacc.
802 * NEWS: Mention this bug fix.
803 * tests/rm/rm2: Adjust two expected diagnostics, now that they're
804 a tiny bit less precise: cannot remove `a/1': ... instead of
805 cannot open directory `a/1': ...
807 * Makefile.maint (syntax-check-rules): Automatically derive this
808 list of sc_-prefixed rule names.
810 2006-02-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
812 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Don't assume cvsu is available.
813 (CVS_LIST_EXCEPT): New macro, to simplify exception-processing.
814 Most uses of CVS_LIST changed to use CVS_LIST_EXCEPT.
815 (syntax-check-rules): Bring back sc_changelong. (Hmm, why did it
816 go away? was that an accident?)
817 (sc_cast_of_argument_to_free, sc_cast_of_x_alloc_return_value):
818 (sc_cast_of_alloca_return_value, sc_space_tab, sc_prohibit_atoi_atof):
819 (sc_error_exit_success, sc_file_system, sc_no_if_have_config_h):
820 (sc_system_h_headers, sc_sun_os_names, sc_trailing_blank):

822 (sc_obsolete_symbols, sc_changelog, sc_prohibit_jm_in_m4):
823 (sc_useless_cpp_parens, makefile-check, m4-check, po-check):
824 (author_mark_check, makefile_path_separator_check):
825 Output line numbers, to simplify navigation of Emacs *compilation*
827 (sc_prohibit_atoi_atof, sc_file_system):
828 Rework slightly so that Makefile.maint doesn't get reported as a
829 violation of its own syntax rules.
830 (sc_dd_max_sym_length): Use ifneq to do nothing, instead of doing
831 it at run-time (which didn't work with Bison). Fix a makefile typo,
832 caught by Makefile.maint itself: spaces where a tab should be.
833 (po-check): Check lib/*.[ch] even if not in CVS; used by Bison,
834 which copies from ../gnulib/lib/*.[ch] to lib/*.[ch].
835 Ignore djgpp and man subdirectories, to avoid false matches with
836 Bison and coreutils, respectively. Use sort -u to remove the
837 resulting duplicates.
838 * gnupload: Rework slightly to avoid bogus warning from
839 sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
841 2006-02-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
843 Use gzip's --rsyncable option only if it's available.
844 * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable): New variable.
847 2006-02-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
849 * Makefile.maint (local-checks-available): Define in terms of
850 the expansion, $(syntax-check-rules), rather than the single,
851 top-level target `syntax-check', so that it's easier to exclude
852 individual rules (via $(local-checks-to-skip)).
853 (tgz-md5, tgz-sha1, ...): Remove now-unused definitions.
855 2006-02-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
857 * src/system.h (!defined O_DIRECT): If O_DIRECTIO is defined (as it
858 is on Tru64), define O_DIRECT to that. Patch From James Lemley.
860 * tests/help-version (expected_failure_status_vdir):
861 Redirect an expected disk-full diagnostic to /dev/null.
863 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
865 * src/unexpand.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate the
866 --first-only option string from its description, so help2man formats
867 the derived man page properly.
868 * src/rm.c (usage): Likewise for --no-preserve-root.
869 * src/chown.c (usage): Likewise.
870 * src/chgrp.c (usage): Likewise.
872 Add a rule to ensure that the above doesn't happen again.
873 * Makefile.maint (sc_two_space_separator_in_usage): New rule.
874 (syntax-check-rules): Add it.
875 * .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage: New empty file.
876 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add .x-sc_two_space_separator_in_usage.
878 2006-02-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
880 * src/cp.c (usage): Use two spaces (not one) to separate each
881 option string from its description, so help2man formats the
882 derived man page properly.
883 * src/mv.c (usage): Likewise.
884 Patch from Nicolas François in http://bugs.debian.org/351601.
886 2006-02-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
888 * src/copy.c (copy_internal): cp -RL would fail when encountering
889 the same directory more than once in the hierarchy beneath a single
890 command-line argument. That is legitimate, e.g. when there are
891 two or more symbolic links, each pointing to some directory that
892 would not otherwise be copied. Reported by Christophe LYON.
893 * tests/cp/cp-deref: New file. Test for today's fix.
894 * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cp-deref.
895 * NEWS: Document this.
897 2006-02-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
899 * configure.ac: Require automake-1.9.6, not 1.8.3.
901 2006-02-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
903 * src/od.c (usage): Mention that -t a ignores high order bit.
904 Documentation problem reported by Ed Avis.
906 2006-02-01 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
908 * src/pwd.c (find_dir_entry): Remove unused local, `ent_sb_valid'.
910 2006-01-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
912 * src/head.c (main): Use a better diagnostic when someone uses a
913 trailing numeric option in an invalid way. Problem reported by
915 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Likewise.
917 2006-01-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
919 * man/wc.x: Include `count' keyword in man page synopsis,
920 per suggestion from http://bugs.debian.org/181585.
922 2006-01-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
924 * src/df.c (show_dev): If the file system claims to have
925 more available than total blocks, report the number of used
926 blocks as being total - available (a negative number) rather
927 than as garbage. Problem reported by Toralf Foerster.
929 2006-01-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
931 * src/tail.c (tail_forever): Don't exit-nonzero when an attempt
932 to put a regular file in O_NONBLOCK mode fails with EPERM.
933 That happens on Linux (up to 2.6.15) when using tail -f on a file with
934 the append-only attribute. Reported by Dean Gaudet. For details,
935 see http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15473.
936 * NEWS: Mention this fix.
937 * tests/tail-2/append-only: New file. Test for the above.
938 * tests/tail-2/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add append-only.

943 * NEWS: Mention fts-related improvements and bug fixes.
945 2006-01-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
947 * tests/fmt/basic (pfx-1, pfx-2): New tests, to demonstrate the bug
948 reported as http://bugs.debian.org/147577. Forwarded by Thomas Hood.
950 2006-01-18 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
952 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-from-unreadable.
954 2006-01-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
956 Now that fts no longer changes the current working directory, adjust
957 its clients accordingly -- note that du.c uses fts but doesn't need
958 any adjustment, since it doesn't operate on the actual files,
959 but rather just uses the stat buffers provided by fts.
961 * src/chown-core.c: Include "openat.h".
962 Don't include "lchown.h".
963 (restricted_chown): Accept a new parameter, CWD_FD, and use it in
964 calling openat, lchownat, chownat, rather than open, lchown, chown.
966 * src/chmod.c: Include "openat.h".
967 (process_file): Use chmodat (fts->fts_cwd_fd,... in place of chmod (...
969 * tests/du/long-from-unreadable: New test, to exercise one small
972 2006-01-13 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
974 * tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add comments discouraging the
975 addition of new directories under tests/.
977 * tests/acl: Redirect stdin to /dev/null. Otherwise, FreeBSD 5.0's
980 2006-01-12 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
982 * tests/du/long-sloop: Adjust not to hard-code the expected
983 diagnostic corresponding to ELOOP. Solaris' diagnostic differs
984 from that of GNU libc. Reported by Paul Eggert.
986 * tests/du/long-sloop: Create file at end of symlink chain.
988 * tests/misc/test: New file, with a test for one of the
989 bugs fixed by yesterday's test.c changes.
990 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add test.
992 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
994 * tests/du/long-sloop: New file. Test for today's fts.c bug fix.
995 That bug could make du -L, chgrp -L, or chown -L fail to diagnose
996 a very long sequence of symbolic links (not necessarily a loop).
997 * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-sloop.
999 2006-01-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1001 * src/test.c (test_syntax_error): Append a newline. All callers
1002 changed, except for the ones that didn't already append a newline.
1003 Bug reported by Eric Blake.
1005 2006-01-11 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1007 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC): Now that verify_true is no longer
1008 void, cast its result to void, to avoid gcc's warning that
1009 ``left-hand operand of comma expression has no effect''.
1010 (DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE, X2REALLOC): Likewise.
1012 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1014 * tests/chmod/no-x: Add a test for today's fts.c fix.
1016 2006-01-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net> (tiny change)
1018 * src/ls.c (gobble_file): Use DTTOIF only if it's defined.
1019 This is necessary for Dragonfly. Patch by Joerg Sonnenberger.
1021 2006-01-10 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1023 * src/system.h (X2NREALLOC, X2REALLOC, DECIMAL_DIGIT_ACCUMULATE):
1024 Use verify_true instead of verify_expr, to sync with gnulib.
1026 2006-01-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1028 * src/date.c (usage): Adjust the formatting of the entries for
1029 %::z and %:::z (separate with two spaces, not one) so that help2man
1030 formats them properly. Reported by Philip Rowlands.
1032 2006-01-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1034 * configure.ac (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Add.
1036 2006-01-06 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1038 * Makefile.maint (copyright-check): Use date +%Y in place of
1041 * src/remove.c (rm_1): Remove `static' attribute on local `status'.
1042 First off, the attribute should have been `volatile' (not static)
1043 to avoid longjmp-related risk of clobber. Secondly, now there is
1044 no longer any risk of a local variable being clobbered, so there's
1045 no need for any attribute at all.
1047 2006-01-05 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1049 * src/remove.c: Give a few functions the inline attribute.
1050 (AD_pop_and_chdir): Use gotos to avoid some duplication.
1051 (AD_push): Rewrite an assertion so that the entire computation
1052 goes away when assertions are turned off.
1054 * src/tail.c (ENOSYS) [!defined ENOSYS]: Don't define here.
1055 It's already defined in "system.h".
1056 * Makefile.maint: Add a FIXME comment.
1058 2006-01-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1060 * ChangeLog: Remove entries from 2005-10-22 and earlier.
1061 * ChangeLog-2005: New file, for entries up to version 5.92.
1063 2006-01-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1065 * tests/du/no-x: Also allow a slightly different diagnostic -- the
1066 one you get when using openat-enabled fts.c and du (coming soon).
1067 * tests/chmod/no-x: Likewise.
1068 * tests/chgrp/no-x: Likewise.
1070 * src/system.h (O_DIRECTORY) [!defined O_DIRECTORY]: Define.
1072 2006-01-02 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1074 * src/chown-core.c (RC_do_ordinary_chown): New enum value.
1075 (restricted_chown): Return it, if the file cannot be accessed due
1076 to EPERM, or if no uid or gid are required, or if the file is
1077 neither a directory nor a regular file. Rewrite to avoid gotos.
1078 (change_file_owner): Handle RC_do_ordinary_chown case.
1079 Rewrite to avoid gotos.
1080 * tests/chgrp/basic: Make sure we can change the group of
1083 * src/date.c (usage): Explain %g, %G, and %V a bit better.
1085 2006-01-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1087 * src/copy.c (set_owner): Correct a comment.
1089 * src/tail.c (parse_options): Change warning to say that --retry
1090 is useful `mainly' (not `only') when following by name.
1091 Reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/273781
1093 2006-01-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1095 * NEWS: Document that mkfifo and mknod -m no longer set special bits.
1096 * src/copy.c: Include lchmod.h.
1097 (copy_internal): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
1098 * src/cp.c: Include lchmod.h.
1099 (re_protect, make_dir_parents_private): Use lchmod rather than chmod.
1100 * src/mkdir.c: Include lchmod.h.
1101 (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
1102 (main): Use lchmod rather than chmod. Don't use lchmod unless the
1103 new mode contains bits outside the 777 range.
1104 * src/mkfifo.c (usage): Clarify -m's operation.
1105 (main): If -m is given, don't invoke chmod; use umask 0 instead.
1106 Report an error if -m asks for bits outside the 777 range.
1107 * src/mknod.c (usage, main): Likewise.
1109 * src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: Undo 2005-12-19 changes.
1111 2005-12-27 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1113 * Makefile.maint (sc_obsolete_symbols): Prohibit use of O_NDELAY.
1114 (sc_prohibit_assert_without_use): New rule.
1115 (syntax-check-rules): Add it to the list.
1116 * .x-sc_prohibit_assert_without_use: New empty file.
1117 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
1119 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Define in terms of $(srcdir).
1121 * cp.c, df.c, link.c, mknod.c, nice.c, sleep.c, unlink.c:
1122 Don't include <assert.h>; it wasn't used.
1124 2005-12-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1126 * src/chown-core.c (restricted_chown):
1127 Don't try O_WRONLY unless O_RDONLY failed wth EACCES.
1128 * src/remove.c (fd_to_subdirp): Open with O_DIRECTORY | O_NOCTTY
1129 | O_NOFOLLOW too, for consistency with other dir-openers.
1130 Use POSIX-preferred O_NONBLOCK rather than O_NDELAY.
1131 (is_empty_dir): Likewise.
1132 * src/shred.c (wipename): Likewise. Don't bother trying to open
1133 dir for writing, since POSIX prohibits it.
1135 2005-12-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1137 * tests/help-version: Redirect stderr to /dev/full, to suppress
1138 write error diagnostic.
1140 2005-12-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1142 * src/mkdir.c, src/mknod.c, src/mkfifo.c (main)
1143 Avoid a minor race condition when `-m MODE' is specified, by using
1144 open, fchown, and close rather than just chown. To do that reliably --
1145 even with an overly restrictive umask -- ensure that each mkdir,
1146 mknod and mkfifo call uses a mode including at least owner-read access.
1147 * src/mknod.c (main): When `-m MODE' is specified, exit nonzero if
1148 the subsequent chown (or equivalent open,fchown,close) fails.
1149 * tests/misc/mknod: New tests.
1150 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add mknod.
1152 2005-12-17 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1154 * src/remove.c (is_empty_dir): Open with O_NDELAY, so we don't hang,
1155 e.g., on a named pipe.
1156 (OPEN_NO_FOLLOW_SYMLINK): Remove definition. Use O_NOFOLLOW in
1157 place of all uses, since it is guaranteed (system.h) to be defined.
1159 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>
1161 Add POSIX ACL support
1162 * src/ls.c: Switch back from HAVE_ACL to USE_ACL: The acl() syscall
1163 is no requirement for ACL support; particularly, it does not exist
1164 on systems that have POSIX ACLs.
1165 * src/copy.h (cp_option_init) [umask_kill]: Remove member.
1166 * src/cp.c (umask_kill): With default acls, the umask is not to be
1167 applied. Remove umask_kill, don't change the process umask, and let
1168 the kernel apply the umask where appropriate.
1169 * src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Fix logic for POSIX ACLs.
1170 * src/copy.c (get_dest_mode): Remove; it is obsolete after removing
1172 (copy_reg, copy_internal): Use copy_acl and set_acl
1173 instead of fchown/chown. Fix the logic for POSIX ACLs.
1174 (chown_succeded): Remove; we now always copy acls and
1175 preserve S_ISUID, S_ISGID, and S_ISVTX when needed, no matter if we
1176 did a chown before or not.
1177 * src/mv.c, src/install.c (cp_option_init): Don't set umask_kill member.
1178 * src/Makefile.am (dir_LDADD, ls_LDADD, vdir_LDADD, cp_LDADD,
1179 mv_LDADD, ginstall_LDADD): On systems with an ACL library, arrange
1180 to link with it via $(LIB_ACL), for the utilities that need it.
1182 2005-12-16 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1184 * src/remove.c (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__REQUIRE): Remove.
1185 (OPENAT_CWD_RESTORE__ALLOW_FAILURE): Likewise.
1186 (fd_to_subdirp): Remove openat_cwd_restore_allow_failure arg; its
1187 value is now signified by whether cwd_errno is null.
1188 (fd_to_subdirp, remove_dir, rm_1); Change cwd failure indicator from
1189 pointer-to-bool to pointer-to-errno-value. All callers changed.
1190 (rm_1): Don't bother setting a local cwd failure flag and then
1191 ORing it into the caller's. Just set the caller's.
1192 (rm): Use cwd failure errno value to print a slightly-better
1195 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1197 * src/stat.c (print_it): Properly handle a backslash at the
1198 end of a --printf format string. Reported by Paul Eggert.
1199 * tests/misc/stat-printf (end-bs): Add a test for the above.
1201 2005-12-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1203 * tests/acl: Port to pre-POSIX shells like Solaris 8 /bin/sh.
1204 Don't assume /etc/passwd contains user names; use 'id' instead.
1206 2005-12-15 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1208 stat: revert behavior of --format=FMT (-c)
1209 stat: add new option: --printf=FMT
1210 * NEWS: Mention this.
1211 * src/stat.c (isodigit, octtobin, hextobin): Define.
1212 (PRINTF_OPTION): Define.
1213 (interpret_backslash_escapes, trailing_delim): New globals.
1214 (usage): Document them. Alphabetize on long option names.
1215 (print_esc_char): New function.
1216 (print_it): Rewrite, in order to handle backslash escapes.
1217 (main): Handle new option. Set globals for --format, too.
1219 * tests/misc/stat-printf: Test --printf and --format.
1220 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add stat-printf.
1222 2005-12-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1224 * NEWS: sort now reports incompatible options.
1225 * src/sort.c (incompatible_options, check_ordering_compatibility):
1227 (main): Use them. Don't bother with a usage message for
1228 "sort -c a b", for consistency with other error diagnostics.
1229 * tests/sort/Test.pm (incompat1, incompat2, incompat3, incompat4):
1232 * src/cat.c (main): Undo previous change. close_stdout already
1233 does the check, so the previous change wasn't necessary.
1235 2005-12-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1237 * src/cat.c (main): Check for close (STDOUT_FILENO) failure.
1239 2005-12-12 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1241 Install a more-conservative approach for sort -R. It's the
1242 same basic idea as the existing code, except it uses the full ISAAC
1243 approach (called the "more kosher" approach in the existing comments).
1244 This makes "sort -R" quite a bit slower (about a factor of 2 on my
1245 little tests involving 10000 lines on a 2.4 GHz P4), but I think it's
1246 better to be conservative here at first, and review any performance
1247 improvements carefully.
1248 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add src/rand-isaac.c.
1249 * src/rand-isaac.h: Remove. All uses now simply include rand-isaac.c.
1250 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Remove rand-isaac.h.
1251 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): Remove.
1252 (EXTRA_DIST): Add rand-isaac.c.
1253 * src/rand-isaac.c: Revert to what used to be in shred.c, without
1254 changing it to allow for varying numbers of words in the state.
1255 Alter so that we include rand-isaac.c directly rather than
1256 compiling it and linking to it. Don't include config.h or
1257 system.h; that's the includer's responsibility.
1258 Omit functions that are specific to shred.
1259 (ISAAC_LOG, ISAAC_WORDS, ISAAC_BYTES, struct isaac_state, ind):
1260 (isaac_step, struct irand_state):
1261 Resurrect these, with the same defns that used to be in shred.c.
1262 (ISAAC_SIZE, isaac_new, isaac_copy): Remove.
1263 (isaac_refill, isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, irand_init, irand32):
1265 (struct isaac_state, isaac_refill, isaac_mix, isaac_init):
1266 (isaac_seed_start, isaac_seed_data, isaac_seed_finish, isaac_seed):
1267 (irand_init, irand32, irand_mod):
1268 Number of words is constant again.
1269 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Move to shred.c.
1270 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.c rather than rand-isaac.h.
1271 * src/sort.c: Likewise.
1272 * src/shred.c (fillrand, dopass, main): Undo previous change.
1273 (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Moved back here,
1275 * src/sort.c: Don't include md5.h; it wasn't needed.
1276 (struct keyfield): Rename random_hash to random, for consistency
1277 with the other member names. All uses changed.
1278 (usage): Tweak wording to mention STRING for --seed option.
1279 (short_options): Rorder for consistency with other programs.
1280 (rand_state): Now a struct, not a pointer to one. All uses changed.
1281 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): Remove.
1282 (get_hash): Remove comments around resbuf size, since we can assume C89.
1283 Use a "more-kosher" (but slower) approach of invoking isaac_refill.
1284 (keycompare): Adjust to the new get_hash.
1286 (badfieldspec): Omit recently-introduced comment; it isn't needed.
1287 (main): Don't set need_random simply because gkey has it set; that
1288 doesn't necessarily mean we'll need random numbers.
1289 Redo seeding to match new get_hash approach.
1291 2005-12-10 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1293 * src/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): Add rand-isaac.h.
1295 Avoid shred segfault on 64-bit systems.
1296 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_refill): Don't try to negate a
1297 local of type uint32_t. Make the local an `int' instead.
1299 * NEWS: Mention sort's new options.
1301 * src/rand-isaac.c (isaac_mix): Declare to be static.
1302 Mark all other functions as `extern' so the tight-scope
1303 part of `make distcheck' passes once again.
1304 * src/rand-isaac.h (isaac_mix): Remove declaration.
1306 * src/sort.c (get_hash): Change position of `*' in parameter
1307 type to conform with convention.
1308 (main): Split a long line so it fits in 80 columns.
1309 (keycompare): Remove stray SPACE before TAB that was
1310 causing `make distcheck' to fail.
1312 * src/shred.c: Don't include gethrxtime.h. No longer needed.
1314 * tests/misc/sort-rand: New file: basic tests for the new options.
1315 * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add sort-rand.
1317 2005-12-10 Frederik Eaton <frederik@ofb.net>
1319 * src/Makefile.am (sort_LDADD): Add $(LIB_GETHRXTIME).
1320 (shred_SOURCES, sort_SOURCES): New macros, so we compile rand-isaac.c.
1321 * src/rand-isaac.c: New file, containing ISAAC code that was in shred.c.
1322 Make state size runtime-configurable.
1323 (isaac_new, isaac_copy): New functions.
1324 * src/rand-isaac.h: New file.
1325 * src/shred.c: Include rand-isaac.h. Move ISAAC code to rand-isaac.c.
1326 (fillrand, main): Adjust to the fact that the state size is now
1327 runtime-configurable.
1328 * src/sort.c (short_options, long_options, WORDS, keycompare, main):
1329 (usage): Add options --random-sort and --seed to implement a random
1331 Include md5.h and rand-isaac.h.
1332 (get_hash): New function.
1333 (rand_state): New var.
1334 (HASH_WORDS, HASH_SIZE): New macros.
1336 2005-12-09 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1338 * tests/dd/misc: Add test for dd iflags=noatime.
1340 2005-12-09 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1342 * src/sort.c (usage): Mention white space vs -b and -t options.
1345 2005-12-09 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
1347 * src/test.c (main): Fix misleading comment.
1349 2005-12-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1351 * NEWS: Mention dd's new noatime flag.
1352 * src/system.h (O_NOATIME): Define to 0 if not already defined.
1353 * src/dd.c (flags, usage): Add support for noatime flag.
1355 2005-12-07 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1357 Distribute the cvsu script, used only by `make syntax-check'.
1358 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add build-aux/cvsu.
1359 * Makefile.maint (CVS_LIST): Use build-aux/cvsu, now that we
1360 distribute a copy of this script.
1361 * .x-sc_unmarked_diagnostics: Add build-aux/cvsu.
1363 * tests/mv/acl: exit-77 before the trap, not after, if we fail
1364 to create a temporary directory on another partition.
1365 From Andreas Gruenbacher.
1367 2005-12-06 Tomas Pospisek <tpo@sourcepole.ch> (tiny change)
1369 * man/basename.x: Cross-reference to dirname and readlink.
1370 * man/dirname.x: Cross-reference to basename and readlink.
1372 2005-12-05 Andreas Gruenbacher
1374 * src/copy.c [!HAVE_FCHOWN]: Define fchown(...) to -1.
1375 (set_owner, preserve_author): New functions, factored out of copy_reg.
1376 (copy_reg): Use them.
1377 (copy_internal): Use them here, too.
1379 2005-12-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1381 * src/sleep.c (usage): Say what happens with two or more arguments.
1382 Suggested by Justin Pryzby.
1384 * src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Move decl of `upsecs' into scope
1387 2005-12-03 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1389 * src/rm.c (long_opts): Change the name of each undocumented, for-
1390 testing-only option to start with `-', so that it cannot render
1391 ambiguous any prefix it happens to share with some other option name.
1392 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
1393 * src/head.c (long_options): Likewise.
1394 * src/tail.c (long_options): Likewise.
1396 * tests/misc/head-elide-tail: Update uses of undocumented, for-
1397 testing-only --presume* options to start with `---'.
1398 * tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Likewise.
1399 * tests/rm/dir-no-w: Likewise.
1400 * tests/rm/isatty: Likewise.
1402 2005-11-30 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1404 * Makefile.maint: Add a comment about cvsu.
1406 2005-11-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1408 * NEWS: df updates for "none", "proc", inaccessible file systems.
1409 * src/df.c (show_point): Ignore inaccessible file systems.
1410 (usage): -a includes dummy file systems, not size-0 file systems.
1412 * src/od.c (unsigned_long_long_int): Renamed from ulonglong_t,
1413 to avoid collision with POSIX name space. All uses changed.
1415 2005-11-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1417 * tests/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add acl to the list.
1418 * tests/acl: Add `$0: ' prefix to diagnostics.
1420 * .x-sc_require_config_h: Add lib/buffer-lcm.c to the list.
1422 2005-11-23 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1424 * src/copy.c: Improve performance a bit by optimizing away
1425 unnecessary system calls and going to a block size of at least
1426 8192 (on normal hosts, anyway). This improved performance 5% on my
1427 Debian stable host (2.4.27 kernel, x86, copying from root
1428 ext3 file system to itself).
1429 Include "buffer-lcm.h".
1430 (copy_reg): Omit last argument. All callers changed.
1431 Use xmalloc to allocate rather than trusting alloca
1432 (which is unwise with large block sizes).
1433 Declare locals more locally, if possible.
1434 Use uintptr_t words instead of int words, for a bit more speed
1435 when looking for null blocks on 64-bit hosts.
1436 Optimize away reads of zero bytes on regular files.
1437 In the typical case, insist on 8 KiB buffers, at least.
1438 Avoid unnecessary extra call to fstat when checking for sparse files.
1439 Avoid now-unnecessary cast to off_t, and "0L".
1440 Avoid unnecessary test of *new_dst when checking for same owner
1443 2005-11-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1445 * src/remove.c (rm): Don't assume C99 for-loop syntax.
1447 2005-11-22 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1449 * src/remove.c (AD_push): Remove debugging cruft.
1451 * tests/rm/unread2 (rm): Change expected diagnostic,
1452 `cannot open directory' to `cannot remove', to align with
1454 * tests/rm/rm2: Ensure that rm now continues removing entries
1455 even after certain types of failure.
1457 * src/remove.c: Rewrite. Now, this module is reentrant on systems
1458 that provide openat (Solaris), and on systems like Linux+procfs
1459 where our openat emulation code is reentrant. This also fixes a
1460 few low-probability leaks and eliminates some code that could,
1461 in very unusual circumstances, cause rm() (via a callee) to exit.
1462 * NEWS: Mention this.
1464 * configure.ac: Put copyright dates all on one line so the
1465 emacs function that updates them works properly.
1467 2005-11-18 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1469 * configure.ac (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): Add. Needed for CVS Automake.
1470 Problem reported by Eric Blake.
1471 (AC_PROG_CC_STDC): Use this instead of AC_PROG_CC, so that
1472 we get a standard-conforming compiler. This relies on the new
1473 m4/c.m4 file. Note that it's a bit tricky, since c.m4 doesn't
1474 define AC_PROG_CC_STDC; we are relying on Autoconf 2.59 internals.
1475 m4/c.m4 can go away with Autoconf 2.60 comes out.

1506 with EACCES rather than EPERM. Reported by Peter O'Gorman here:
1507 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.core-utils.bugs/5766
1508 This also affects AIX 4.3.3, according to Ralf Wildenhues, in

1541 * NEWS: Merge in changes from b5_9x branch.
1543 2005-11-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
1545 * NEWS: ls now defaults to --time-style='locale', which in turn acts
1546 like --time-style='posix-long-iso' if the locale settings are messed up.
1547 * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Implement this.
1549 2005-11-08 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>

1561 * src/ln.c: Include filenamecat.c.
1562 (FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT): Remove.
1563 (do_link): Remove last arg DEST_IS_DIR. All callers changed.
1564 (main): Use file_name_concat, base_name, and strip_trailing_slashes
1565 instead of FILE_BASENAME_CONCAT. This simplifies the code, and avoids
1568 2005-11-04 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1570 * src/du.c (process_file): Don't overflow for files of size >= 2^31
1571 on systems with stat.st_blocks of a signed 32-bit type.
1572 This bug causes trouble on some AIX 5.1 systems.
1573 Report and trivial patch from Paul Townsend:

1591 2005-11-02 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1593 * tests/dd/skip-seek: Fix typo in comment: s/fileutils/coreutils.
1594 From Andreas Schwab.
1596 * tests/dd/unblock-sync: Redirect stderr to /dev/null so the
1597 `M+N records in/out' lines don't pollute `make check' output.
1599 * tests/dd/skip-seek (sk-seek4): New test, to exercise the bug
1600 fixed on 2005-10-31. This test uses the new, IN_PIPE specifier.
1601 * tests/Coreutils.pm: Accept a new type of input specifier: IN_PIPE,
1602 to indicate that the input file should be piped into the command
1603 under test (via `cat FILE | $prog ...').
1605 * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Emit a better diagnostic when rm
1606 (without -r) fails to remove a directory on a non-Linux system.

1615 * NEWS: "tail -c 2 FILE" and "touch 0101000000" now operate as
1616 POSIX 1002.1-2001 requires.
1617 * src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Implement this.
1618 Problem reported by Vincent Lefevre.
1619 * src/touch.c (main): Pass PDS_PRE_2000 to posixtime.
1620 * tests/tail/Test.pm (c-2, c-2-minus, c2, c2-minus): New tests.
1621 (test_vector): Add special cases for _POSIX2_VERSION, and
1622 regularize the old ones a bit.
1623 * tests/touch/obsolescent: Add y2000 test.
1625 2005-10-31 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

1649 the dircolors bug (NULL-dereference) fixed yesterday.
1651 2005-10-24 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1653 * src/tac.c (tac_file): When determining whether a file is seekable,
1654 also test whether it is a tty. Using only the lseek-based test would
1655 give a false positive on Solaris. Reported by Peter Fales.
1657 2005-10-24 Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org>
1659 * tests/install/d-slashdot: New test, for "install -d" failure.

1667 Anonymous report and patch from
1668 http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=14849
1670 * src/dircolors.c: Add compile-time assertion that the slack_codes
1671 and ls_codes arrays have the same number of elements. This would
1672 have prevented the above-fixed bug.
1674 * src/expand.c (parse_tab_stops): Add a comment to make this function
1675 identical to the one in unexpand.c.
1676 * src/unexpand.c (parse_tab_stops): Adjust syntax to make this function
1677 identical to the one in expand.c.
1679 * src/expand.c (next_file): Don't assume fopen cannot return stdin.
1681 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
1683 * src/md5sum.c (digest_check, main): Use ptr_align rather than
1684 a dangerous pointer-value-to-`unsigned' cast.
1685 * NEWS: mention the new sha* programs.
1686 * AUTHORS: Add new sha* programs.
1688 2005-08-28 David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>

1708 * tests/sha1sum/basic-1 (million-a): Add the "million a's" test (one
1709 of the FIPS test vectors).
1711 2005-10-23 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
