Jim Meyering d2e0f3602e build: update gnulib...
...to fix the failing update-copyright test,
and for the openat portability fix.
2010-11-13 15:45:56 +01:00
Jim Meyering 2d5b3329a2 build: update gnulib for linux 2.6.9 nanosleep workaround
Also, do the following to avoid "make syntax-check" failure
induced by new rules.
* .x-sc_bindtextdomain: Exempt files with an #ifdef'd "main".
* Makefile.am: Add this file.

Jim Meyering ff5fc553f9 maint: remove fstimeprec (variable precision time stamp) support
The implementation of variable-precision time stamps relied
on heuristics that made the output subtly nondeterministic,
or at least hard to reproduce:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.bugs/21531/focus=21538
So, for now at least, we're removing that feature.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove fstimeprec.
* gl/lib/fstimeprec.c, gl/lib/fstimeprec.h: Remove files.
* gl/modules/fstimeprec, gl/modules/fstimeprec-tests: Likewise.
* gl/tests/test-fstimeprec.c: Remove file.
2010-11-13 11:41:02 +01:00
Jim Meyering 4a8e9bf14c stat: do not provide variable precision time stamps
* src/stat.c: Don't include fstimeprec.c.
(out_epoch_sec): Don't call fstimeprec.
* NEWS: Update description.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Likewise.
2010-11-13 11:40:52 +01:00
Paul Eggert 6568b173db csplit: do not rely on undefined behavior in printf formats
* doc/coreutils.texi (csplit invocation): Say that %d and %i are
aliases for %u.
* src/csplit.c (FLAG_THOUSANDS, FLAG_ALTERNATIVE): New constants.
(get_format_flags): Now take char const * and int * and return
size_t.  It now stores info about the flags instead of merely
scanning them.  Also, it handles '0' correctly.  Drop support for
the undocumented '+' and ' ' flags since the value is unsigned.
Add support for the (undocumented) "'" flag.  All uses changed.
(get_format_width, get_format_prec): Remove.
(check_format_conv_type): Renamed from get_format_conv_type, with
a different signature.  It now converts the format to one that is
compatible with unsigned int, and checks flags.  All uses changed.
(max_out): Have snprintf compute the number of bytes needed rather
than attempting to do it ourselves (which doesn't work portably
with outlandish formats such as %4294967296d).
(check_format_conv_type, main): Check for overflow in size
calculations.  Don't assume size_t fits in unsigned int.
* tests/misc/csplit: Check for proper handling of flags, with
%0#6.3x.  Coreutils 8.6 mishandles this somewhat-weird example.
2010-11-11 08:16:24 +01:00
Pádraig Brady 0339eb4598 csplit: fix a memory leak per input buffer
* src/csplit.c (free_buffer): Also free the line offsets buffers
(remove_line): Also free the containing structure
* tests/misc/csplit-heap: A new test to trigger with leaks of
this magnitude.
* tests/Makefile.am: Reference the new test
* NEWS: Mention the fix
Reported by David Hofstee

Jim Meyering 0cfd4f2161 csplit: avoid buffer overrun when writing more than 999 files
Without this fix, seq 1000 | csplit - /./ '{*}' would write
the NUL-terminated file name, xx1000, into a buffer of size 6.
* src/csplit.c (main): Use properly sized file name buffer.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
* tests/misc/csplit-1000: New test to trigger the bug.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add misc/csplit-1000.
2010-11-10 14:28:03 +01:00
Pádraig Brady 425503c807 tests: avoid portability problem with dash vs. symlinked ttys
* tests/mv/i-3: Adjust so that the symlink is resolved
before redirecting to the background command, as otherwise
the stdin descriptor passed to the command will fail the
isatty() or ttyname() test.
2010-11-09 12:43:20 +00:00
Pádraig Brady 4a14a80bd1 tests: avoid portability problem with dash vs. local v=$splittable_val
* tests/init.cfg (retry_delay_): Adjust awk script to print a single
floating point value, rather than many.
2010-11-08 11:26:08 +01:00
Jim Meyering dd45755406 tests: don't disqualify FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh just yet,
because dash-0.5.6-2.fc14.x86_64 would also be disqualified.
This reverts part of yesterday's commit 6c058b2d, "tests: avoid
failure due to bug in FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh".  Note that the offending
aspect of those shells is not officially a bug, since "local" is not
specified by POSIX.  However, it is very unintuitive that prepending
"local" to an existing, standards-compliant assignment would evoke
such a fundamental change in semantics.
* tests/init.sh: Remove snippet requiring sane "local" support.

Paul Eggert ca9aa75960 stat: do not rely on undefined behavior in printf formats
* src/stat.c (digits, printf_flags): New static vars.
(make_format): New function.
(out_string, out_int, out_uint, out_uint_o, out_uint_x):
(out_minus_zero): Use it to avoid undefined behavior when invoking
printf.
(print_it): Check for invalid conversion specifications such as
%..X and %1-X, which would otherwise rely on undefined behavior
when invoking printf.
* tests/misc/stat-nanoseconds: Check that the "I" printf flag
doesn't mess up in the C locale, as it formerly did on non-GNU
hosts.
2010-11-06 18:09:44 -07:00
Jim Meyering 6c058b2dab tests: avoid failure due to bug in FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh
* tests/init.sh: Arrange not to accept FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh, since
it fails this test: /bin/sh -c 'f(){ local s=$IFS; test -n "$s"; }; f'
* tests/init.cfg (sanitize_path_): Stop-gap measure to work around
a bug in FreeBSD 8.1's /bin/sh.  We'll un-do this change once all
300+ tests use init.sh.

Paul Eggert c7375c236c stat: use e.g. %.3X instead of %X.%3:X for sub-second precision
* NEWS: Document this.
* doc/coreutils.texi (stat invocation): Likewise.
* gl/lib/fstimeprec.c, gl/lib/fstimeprec.h, gl/modules/fstimeprec:
* gl/modules/fstimeprec-tests, gl/tests/test-fstimeprec.c:
New files.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fstimeprec.
* src/stat.c: Include fstimeprec.h.  Don't include xstrtol.h.

(out_int, out_uint): Now returns whatever printf returned.
(out_minus_zero, out_epoch_secs): New functions.
(print_stat): Use out_epoch_sec instead of out_ns and epoch_sec.
(print_stat, print_it, usage): Remove the %:X-style formats.
* tests/misc/stat-nanoseconds: Set TZ=UTC0 to avoid problems
with weird time zones.  Use a time stamp near the Epoch so that we
don't have to worry about leap seconds.  Redo test cases to match
new behavior.
* tests/touch/60-seconds: Change %Y.%:Y to %.9Y, to adjust to
new behavior.

Jim Meyering db42ae787d stat: revert %X-%Y-%Z change; use e.g., %:X to print fractional seconds
This reverts part of the recent commit 9069af45,
"stat: print timestamps to full resolution", which made %X, %Y, %Z
print floating point numbers.  We prefer to retain portability of
%X, %Y and %Z uses, while still providing access to full-resolution
time stamps via modified format strings.  Also make the new
%W consistent.
* src/stat.c: Include "xstrtol.h".
(print_it): Accept a new %...:[XYZ] format directive,
e.g., %:X, to print the nanoseconds portion of the corresponding time.
For example, %3.3:Y prints the zero-padded, truncated, milliseconds
part of the time of last modification.
(print_it): Update print_func signature to match.
(neg_to_zero): New helper function.
(epoch_time): Remove function; replace with...
(epoch_sec): New function; use timetostr.
(out_ns): New function.  Use "09" only when no other modifier
is specified.
(print_statfs): Change type of "m" to unsigned int,
now that it must accommodate values larger than 255.
(print_stat): Likewise.
Map :X to a code of 'X' + 256.  Likewise for Y, Z and W.
(usage): Update.
* tests/touch/60-seconds: Use %Y.%:Y in place of %Y.
* tests/misc/stat-nanoseconds: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention this.
With improvements by Pádraig Brady.
Thanks to Andreas Schwab for raising the issue.

Pádraig Brady 883ac22239 cp: make --attributes-only override --reflink completely
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Change the description slightly
so as users might not immediately discount using this option.
Mention that --reflink is overridden by the other linking options and
--attributes-only, and give an example where this might be useful.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Bypass the reflink if
--attributes-only is specifed.
* tests/cp/reflink-perm: Ensure both --reflink modes are
overridden by --attributes-only.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

Pádraig Brady c84ddbaa33 tail: support rechecking currently missing remote dirs
src/tail.c (main): As an optimization, don't bother checking
for stdin or remote files, when ---disable-inotify is specified.
To improve the fix in commit 61b77891, set the disable_inotify
flag when we fall back to polling, so that we recheck remote files.

Paul Eggert 6b9ab1831f bug#7213: [PATCH] sort: fix buffer overrun on 32-bit hosts when warning re obsolete keys
* src/sort.c (key_warnings): Local buffer should be of size
INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (uintmax_t), not INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (sword).
This bug was discovered by running 'make check' on a 32-bit
Solaris 8 sparc host, using Sun cc.  I saw several other instances
of invoking umaxtostr on a buffer declared to be of size
INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (VAR), and these instances should at some point
be replaced by INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND (uintmax_t) too, as that's a
less error-prone style.
2010-10-14 11:39:14 +02:00
Paul Eggert 7324fba675 tests: work around portability and clock-skew problems
* tests/misc/ls-misc (push_ls_colors): Don't assume LS_COLORS
is set.  This part of the fix is by Jim Meyering.
(sl-dangle2, sl-dangle3, sl-dangle4, sl-dangle5): Don't assume
that newly-created files will have time stamps in the past.  They
might not, due to clock skew, if the file systems are remote.

2010-10-14 09:23:51 +02:00
Paul Eggert c586bff1c0 install: avoid warning with Solaris 10 cc
* src/install.c (extra_mode): Don't assign ~S_IRWXUGO & ~S_IFMT
to a mode_t variable, as the number might be too big to fit.
Solaris 10 cc warns about this, and the C standard says it
has undefined behavior.

Paul Eggert 4015f93d30 mbsalign: avoid warning with Solaris 10 cc
* gl/lib/mbsalign.c: Include <stdint.h> for SIZE_MAX.
Use SIZE_MAX rather than (size_t) -1, to avoid warning for
"size_t x = -1" on Solaris 10 cc.
* gl/modules/mbsalign (Depends-on): Add stdint.
2010-10-13 22:41:17 -07:00
Paul Eggert 34ef0a01f0 sort: fix unportable cast of unsigned char * -> char *
* src/sort.c (fold_toupper): Change this back from char to
unsigned char, fixing a portability issue introduced in commit
59e2e55d0f dated February 26, as the
C Standard doesn't let you convert from unsigned char * to char *
without a cast, and the (in theory more portable) style here is to
convert char values, not pointer values.
(getmonth): Convert char to unsigned char when needed for
comparison.
2010-10-13 22:41:13 -07:00
Jim Meyering 71a3fd73a1 build: prepare to enable -Werror also for gnulib-tests/
* configure.ac (GNULIB_WARN_CFLAGS): Define new variable, for use

but only for a few specific offending tests:
(test_xvasprintf_CFLAGS): Define.
(test_lock_CFLAGS, test_tls_CFLAGS): Define.
2010-10-13 11:20:18 +02:00

Pádraig Brady 61b77891c2 tail: fix checking of currently unavailable directories
* src/tail.c (tail_forever_inotify): Handle the case where
tail --follow=name with inotify, is not able to add a watch on
a specified directory.  This may happen due to inotify resource
limits or if the directory is currently missing or inaccessible.
In all these cases, revert to polling which will try to reopen
the file later.  Note inotify returns ENOSPC when it runs out
of resources, and instead we report a particular error message,
lest users think one of their file systems is full.
(main): Document another caveat with using inotify, where we
currently don't recheck directories recreated after the
initial watch is setup.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: Fix the endless loop triggered by
the above issue.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/wait: Don't fail in the resource exhaustion case.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing: A new test for this failure mode
which was until now just triggered on older buggy linux kernels
which returned ENOSPC constantly from inotify_add_watch().
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
