* src/cat.c (main):
Improve test for when copying will exhaust the output device.
Do not rely on st_size, which is unreliable in /proc.
Use lseek instead; this is good enough here.
* tests/cat/cat-self.sh: Test the relaxation of the heuristic
for self-copying.
od was seen to abort() on glibc on ia64 and m68k with the error:
Fatal glibc error: printf_fp.c:501 (__printf_fp_buffer_1):
assertion failed:
cy == 1 || (p.frac[p.fracsize - 2] == 0 && p.frac[0] == 0)
* tests/od/od-multiple-t.sh: Avoid outputting long double floats
to avoid undefined behavior. 'float' and 'double' are standardized
by IEEE 754 (except on Linux/m68k) and don't have undefined values.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Verify that printf field width specs
count characters and not bytes before enabling locale tests.
This was seen on FreeBSD 14.0 and Solaris 11 OpenIndiana.
Reported by Bruno Haible
* src/ls.c (print_dir): readdir() on FreeBSD 14 was
seen to pass ENOENT through. ENOENT in this context
means "Directory unlinked but still open".
Reported by Bruno Haible with tests/ls/removed-directory.sh
There is a mismatch between isblank() used by tr and c32isblank() now
used by uniq on Solaris 11 OpenIndiana. isblank() was seen to return
true for non breaking space, while c32isblank() returned false.
Interestingly on Solaris, non breaking space is considered a blank
character, and isblank() and c32isblank() honor this in all locales.
* tests/uniq/uniq.pl: Adjust the blank check to use join(1) rather than
tr(1), as join uses the same blank determination routines as uniq(1).
This issue was introduced in commit v8.19-145-g24ebca6
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): On systems that don't support ACLs,
the fallback default chmod done on directories should maintain
the set-group-ID, as that's generally auto-set by the system.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
Reported by Bruno Haible on Alpine (with tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh)
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Some systems with the fr_FR.UTF-8
locale installed, do not have a thousands grouping character defined.
In this case we skip the locale tests which depend on a non empty
grouping character.
* tests/chmod/symlinks.sh: The count of adjusted modes was
one more on systems where symlink modes can be adjusted.
Therefore only include the non symlinks in the count.
* src/chown-core.h (emit_from_option_description): The conditional
string composition here caused issues for translators.
Instead move to a more general description ...
(src/chown.c (usage): ... here.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/69985
* tests/chmod/symlinks.sh: Ensure this new test is immune
to setgid directories by resetting modes with =777 rather than 777.
Also output more debugging in all failure cases.
* tests/mv/mv-exchange.sh: Canonicalize different
"operation not supported" messages, so we can ignore correctly.
Reported by Bruno Haible on AIX, NetBSD, and OpenBSD.
Also, improve quality of diagnostics.
Problems/suggestions by Bernhard Voelker in
<https://bugs.gnu.org/69532#82>.
* src/copy.c (emit_verbose): New arg FORMAT. All uses changed,
to improve quality of diagnostics when --exchange is used.
(copy_internal): Don’t try to optimize --exchange so much; this
simplifies the code and keeps it closer to the non --exchange case.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Simplify logic for copying
from directory to non-directory or vice versa, and always
diagnose with both source and destination file names.
Using the shell's exec -a feature can be awkward
so add support for setting overriding argv[0].
This gives env full control over the arguments it passes.
* src/env.c: Accept -a,--argv0 and set argv[0] appropriately.
* tests/env/env.sh: Add test cases.
* doc/coreutils.texi (env invocation): Describe -a,--argv0.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* doc/coreutils.texi (pr invocation): Explicitly state that
multicolumn output will convert spaces to TABs, and show that
this can be undone with the `pr -t -e` or `expand` commands.
Suggested by Douglas McIlroy in https://bugs.gnu.org/69807
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options): New member 'exchange'.
* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Support the new member.
* src/mv.c (EXCHANGE_OPTION): New constant.
(long_options): Add --exchange.
(usage): Document --exchange.
(main): Support --exchange.
* tests/mv/mv-exchange.sh: New test case.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.
This is an issue with -[H]R mode, where an attacker
may replace a traversed file with a symlink
between where we stat() the file and chmod() the file.
* src/chmod.c (process_file): Remove the first !S_ISLNK guard
as that's now just an optimization, and instead consistently
apply fchmodat() to files/symlinks. Ensure AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW
is set when traversing in default (-H) mode.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/11108
There have been various requests to add -h to avoid following symlinks
for security reasons. This wasn't provided previously as chmod(1)
already ignored symlinks unless specified on the command line.
Note chmod defaults to -H mode rather than the chown default of -P,
as usually chown can work directly on symlinks and so defaults
to not traversing those specified on the command line.
Note FreeBSD chmod does default to -P mode, but we retain the -H mode
default also for compatibility with existing chmod behavior.
Adding -HLP will allow chmod to disable traversing CLI symlinks to dirs.
Adding -h will allow to disable following CLI symlinks to files/dirs,
also operating on all symlinks on systems that support that.
Adding --dereference will be significant with -H (the default). I.e.
symlinks to dirs not recursed, but symlinks are dereferenced.
Adding these options will also be consistent with chown(1), chgrp(1),
and chmod(1) on other systems.
Note since chmod(1) currently ignores symlinks by default,
and -h is primarily a mechanism to avoid following symlinks, rather than
for operating on the symlink itself, we make -h try to chmod a symlink,
but ignore ENOTSUP. In that way we're consistent with chown(1)
where it also ignores ENOTSUP for symlinks, and we don't fail when
trying to be extra secure with command line params.
* doc/coreutils.texi (chmod invocation): Reference the -H,-L,-P
descriptions, and adjust the corresponding macros to say
the default is -H or -P as appropriate.
Add --dereference and -h,--no-dereference descriptions.
* man/chmod.x: Adjust discussion of symlink handling.
* src/chmod.c (main): Accept new options and set
fts flags appropriately.
(process_file): Process / dereference symlinks as necessary.
* src/system.h (emit_symlink_recurse_options): A new function
refactored from chown.c and chmod.c usage().
* tests/chmod/symlinks.sh: New test for the new options.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* src/basenc.c (base16_encode, base2msbf_encode, base2lsbf_encode):
Ensure we don't overflow the output buffer, whose length is
passed in the OUTLEN parameter. This issue was flagged by clang
with -Wunused-but-set-parameter.
Behave like who(1) in requiring --lookup to enable this
often slow feature. pinky(1) is supposed to be lightweight after all.
* doc/coreutils.texi (who invocation): Adjust the description to no
longer reference dialup, and be more general about the still significant
delays.
(pinky invocation): Reference the same --lookup description.
* src/pinky.c (main): Accept --lookup to enable DNS lookups.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
Fixes https://bugs.debian.org/628815
Following v5.2.1-679-g7e29ef8b8 symlinks specified on the command line
no longer induce an error if lchown() is not supported on the system.
* doc/coreutils.texi (chown invocation, chgrp invocation): Adjust
accordingly, and also use a macro to avoid duplication.
* src/chown-core.c: Use our more standard is_ENOTSUP() wrapper
in the code related to this.
Some signals with values less that the max signal number for the system
do not have defined names. For example, currently on amd64 Linux,
signals 32 and 33 do not have defined names, and Android has a wider
gap of undefined names where it reserves some realtime signals.
Previously the signal listing in env ended up reusing the name
of the last printed valid signal (the repeated HUP below):
$ env --list-signal-handling true
HUP ( 1): IGNORE
HUP (32): BLOCK
HUP (38): IGNORE
..and the corresponding signal numbers were rejected as operands for the
env, kill, and timeout commands.
This patch removes the requirement that sig2str returns 0 for a signal
number associated with an operand. This allows unnamed signals to be in
the sets `env' attempts to manipulate when a --*-signal option is used
with no argument, and kill(1) and timeout(1) to send such unnamed
signals.
* src/operand2sig.c (operand2sig): Drop signame argument, accept all
signal numbers <= SIGNUM_BOUND. All callers updated.
* src/env.c (parse_signal_action_params, reset_signal_handlers)
(parse_block_signal_params, set_signal_proc_mask)
(list_signal_handling): Accept all signal numbers <= SIGNUM_BOUND,
use SIG%d for printing if necessary.
* src/kill.c (list_signals, main): Likewise.
(send_signals): Check errno from kill(3) for bad signo.
* src/timeout.c (main): Update operand2sig call.
* tests/misc/kill.sh: Test listing all signal numbers.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* configure.ac: Wrap the following with AC_CACHE_VAL,
so that they can be cached / overridden. We use
the "utils_cv_" prefix as they're coreutils specific overrides.
utils_cv_avx2_intrinsic_exists,
utils_cv_brain_16_bit_supported,
utils_cv_ieee_16_bit_supported,
utils_cv_pclmul_intrinsic_exists,
utils_cv_stdbuf_supported.
Recent clang provides __bf16 on aarch64 but it is broken.
If built with -O0, the conversion is wrong:
$ printf '\x3F\x80' | od --end=big -An -tfB | tr -d ' '
1.875
If built with -O1 or higher, compilation fails:
fatal error: error in backend:
Cannot select: 0xb400007a58d29780: f32 = fp_extend 0xb40000...
0xb40000...: bf16,ch = CopyFromReg 0xb40000..., Register:bf16 %13
0xb40000...: bf16 = Register %13
In function: print_bfloat
The latter issue does not cause the existing configure test to fail
because the promotion is optimized out.
* configure.ac: Ensure 16 bit float promotion code does not get
optimized out, and produces an expected result.
* src/timeout.c (main): Block cleanup signals earlier so that cleanup()
is not runnable until monitored_pid is in a deterministic state.
This ensures we always send a termination signal to the child
once it's forked.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Reported at https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/issues/82
* src/timeout.c (cleanup): Handle the case where monitored_pid
might be -1, which could happen if a signal was received
immediately after a failed fork() call. In that case it would
send the termination signal to all processes that the timeout
process has permission to send signals too.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/digest.c (main): If --binary was enabled with a previous --tag,
then reset the binary mode to auto select if --untagged then specified.
* tests/cksum/cksum-a.sh: Add a test case.
Since this functionality is recently available
in the exch(1) utility from util-linux,
it was thought best not to complicate mv with it.
This reverts commit 6cd2d5e533
* src/digest.c (main): Only validate the last used --length
for being a multiple of 8.
* tests/cksum/b2sum.sh: Add a test case.
