* tests/ls/acl.sh: Check that the gap between the '+' indicator and
the link count is the same whether the listing contains one or
several ACL entries.
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/pull/251
* src/ls.c (calculate_columns): Treat width as inclusive max.
(print_with_separator): Likewise. Also handle commas explicitly,
since they're not catered for by an implicit newline in the count.
* tests/ls/w-option.sh: Adjust exact-fit column tests.
Note this change also makes the existing `ls -w4 -x -T0 a b` test
behave consistently with other output width limits.
Also add the test case from:
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/pull/213
* tests/ls/m-option.sh: Add a test case to ensure appropriate
wrapping when trailing comma at the line limit.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
In the edge case where the right most column would
consist of only files taking 1 or 2 cells, we accounted
for 3 cells, which would result in using 1 column too few.
This should have been part of commit v8.24-59-ge71be1292
* src/ls.c (init_column_info): Don't account for separator
in the the final column.
* tests/ls/w-option.sh: Add a test case.
Note were links are not supported (like on Solaris or FreeBSD),
the text still displays normally.
* man/chmod.x: Link from "numeric mode" in chmod man page,
to more detailed online info.
Previously the string from strerror would only be printed for some
algorithms:
$ cksum -a sha2 -l 256 /dev/null > /dev/full
cksum: write error: No space left on device
$ cksum -a sysv /dev/null > /dev/full
cksum: write error
This patch fixes it so that the error information is always printed:
$ ./src/cksum -a sha2 -l 256 /dev/null > /dev/full
cksum: write error: No space left on device
$ ./src/cksum -a sysv /dev/null > /dev/full
cksum: write error: No space left on device
* src/cksum.c (output_file): Don't check for a write error here.
(main): Check for it here instead.
* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Add a 'cksum' invocation for each supported
algorithm.

This matches the manual, as well as the -u option,
and should help reduce confusion.
* src/test.c (usage): Fix -g documentation to match the structure of -u
* src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Use xinmalloc() to gracefully
handle overflow. Also use the runtime locale specific MB_CUR_MAX
rather than the worst case MB_LEN_MAX.
* tests/unexpand/mb.sh: Add a test case that fails in a default
glibc build with either MB_CUR_MAX or MB_LEN_MAX.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Reported by Michał Majchrowicz.
* src/cut.c: We use the mcel interface to populate these arrays,
so restrict to the mcel supported max. This is more efficient
as generally stateful encodings are not used or supported.
The default memory allocation with pipes was too passive/static,
resulting in not allocating enough memory to enable threading.
By dynamically reallocating the buffer when reading from
unknown sized inputs we better use available memory and threads.
$ time seq 10000000 -1 0 | sort-old >/dev/null
real 0m16.523s
user 0m16.900s
sys 0m0.167s
$ time seq 10000000 -1 0 | sort-old -S1G >/dev/null
real 0m12.263s
user 0m29.646s
sys 0m0.527s
$ time seq 10000000 -1 0 | sort-new >/dev/null
real 0m12.994s
user 0m31.266s
sys 0m0.716s
It also avoids the overhead of writing to temp files
for modestly sized inputs. For example the following
input would induce interaction with temp storage:
$ seq 125000 | wc -c
763895
* src/sort.c (sort_buffer_size): Rename to ...
(sort_buffer_policy): ... here, and adjust to set
an initial size and limit, rather than just a size.
(fillbuf): Add a POLICY parameter, and use that
to call maybe_growbuf() as needed.
(maybe_growbuf): Return true if POLICY dictates we
should grow the buffer, and try_growbuf() was
able to reallocate the larger buffer.
* tests/sort/sort-buffer-size.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
Related to https://bugs.gnu.org/10877
* src/basenc.c: Add (1) to base64 and base32 references.
* src/cksum.c. Likewise for cksum references.
* src/echo.c: Use "bell" in descriptions rather than BEL.
* src/printf.c: Likewise.
* src/id.c: Separate -u,-U,-G so marked up appropriately.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/80904
* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Add a check to ensure we diagose
writing to closed stdout. Also ensure we exit with failure
in other cases.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Likewise.
* configure.ac: Define PACKAGE_L10N_BUGREPORT.
* man/local.mk (run_help2man): Set the IN_HELP2MAN environment variable.
* src/system.h (emit_ancillary_info): Don't emit "Report any translation
bugs to" line; this is already done by emit_bug_reporting_address() in
version-etc.c.

I noticed a single failure on cfarm29 (Linux 6.12 ppc64le),
where the output was missing:
-tail: directory containing watched file was removed
-tail: inotify cannot be used, reverting to polling
-tail: 'dir/file' has appeared; following new file
* tests/tail/inotify-dir-recreate.sh: Leverage the new tail --debug
output to sync to a point where we know the inotify watches are in
place. Also normalize the file argument quoting a bit.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/comm.c (usage): Remove mention that FILE1 and FILE2 cannot both be
standard input.
(compare_files): Only close standard input once.
* doc/coreutils.texi (comm invocation): Document the behavior of
'comm - -' which is not portable to all implementations.
* tests/comm/dash-dash.sh: New file.
* tests/misc/comm.pl: Move to tests/comm/comm.pl.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add the new test. Rename the existing
test.
* src/yes.c (splice_write): Always drain what we've written
to an internal pipe, so there is no possibility of vmsplice() blocking.
I.e., be defensive in the case that fcntl() fails, and
our default buffer size (currently 16kiB) is larger than the pipe.
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/issues/253
* tests/misc/user.sh: Modify the "unshare -U logname" test, so that it
does not fail on glibc versions (< 2.28, >= 2.38) that do a fallback
lookup based on the tty.
* tests/date/date-locale-hour.sh: Just strip the char before the last x,
assuming it's going to be the newline output by `locale`.
dash doesn't support $'' within ${}.
* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Allow a generic error string on musl since
the first line is emitted immediately instead of being buffered as
expected.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
* m4/jm-macros.m4: AIX has a splice() function for TCP,
so check for vmsplice() instead.
* src/splice.h: Define HAVE_SPLICE if vmsplice available.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
Fix an unreleased issue due to the recent change
to using idx_t in commit v9.10-91-g02983e493
* src/cksum.c (main): Limit the possible return to
the range supported by idx_t.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
* tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Run getlimits_ to ensure
we have $SSIZE_MAX etc. available. Also give some buffer
for the configured ulimit to leave space for returns_ to work.
* tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: Old Centos 7 can give EINVAL
from SEEK_DATA on sparse files being copied from /dev/shm.
Avoid this failure as it's not practical to fix.
* tests/date/date-locale-hour.sh: Ensure `locale date_fmt`
is propagated exactly, even when it contains trailing new lines,
as was seen with Serbian locales on Centos 7.
As noted in https://bugs.gnu.org/9089
ksh gives intermittent ECONNRESET errors with closed pipes.
This can be seen reliably on Linux with:
ksh -c 'yes | (sleep .1; head -n10 >/dev/null)'
* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Avoid part of test on ksh.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Likewise.
