This fixes a porting bug introduced in
2019-08-12T03:29:00Z!bruno@clisp.org.
Problem discovered on AIX 7.1.
* src/local.mk (LDADD): Add $(LIB_MBRTOWC), since pretty much
every command uses quotearg or mbrtowc or whatever.
(src_sort_LDADD): Add $(LIBPMULTITHREAD) and
$(LIB_PTHREAD_SIGMASK) instead of $(LIBTHREAD).
When configured with --enable-single-binary tools issue incorrect prctl:
prctl(PR_SET_KEEPCAPS, ...) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
PR_SET_MM_ARG_START is not a prctl 'option' parameter, it's 'arg2'
parameter for the option PR_SET_MM. It also has to have 'arg4' and
'arg5' set to 0 explicitly, otherwise the kernel also returns -EINVAL.

Living so close to Hollywood I know that "colorize"
means adding color to something that was already monochrome,
whereas "color" means to give color to something.
Coreutils apps color text instead of colorizing it.
* configure.ac: Check for fclonefileat.
* src/copy.c [HAVE_FCLONEFILEAT && !USE_XATTR]:
Include <sys/clonefile.h>.
(copy_reg): If possible, use fclonefileat to clone.
This fixes a bug that I introduced in
2006-12-06T19:44:08Z!eggert@cs.ucla.edu.
* src/copy.c (USE_XATTR): New macro.
(copy_reg): Use it to help the compiler. Prefer open u+w to a
later chmod u=rw; u+r isn’t needed for xattr. For the later u-r,
do only one (or zero) chmod calls instead of two (or one).
In the last chmod, respect the umask instead of ignoring it.
* tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh: Test for the bug.
This fixes an issue introduced in the fix for Bug#11100.
* NEWS: Mention this.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Fix obscure bug where open-without-CREAT
failed with ENOENT and we forget to call set_process_security_ctx
before calling open-with-CREAT. Also, don’t bother to unlink
DST_NAME if open failed with ENOENT; and if unlink fails with
ENOENT, don’t consider that to be an error (someone else could
have removed the file for us, and that’s OK). Also, don’t worry
about move mode, since we use O_EXCL|O_CREAT and so won’t open
an existing file.
New warnings are added related to the handling
of thousands grouping characters, decimal points, and sign characters.
Examples now diagnosed are:

Support checksum files with CRLF line endings,
which is a common gotcha for using --check on windows,
or with checksum files generated on windows.
Note we escape \r here to support the original coreutils format
(with file name at EOL), and file names with literal
\r characters as the last character of their name.
* src/digest.c (filename_unescape): Convert \\r -> \r.
(print_filename): Escape \r -> \\r.
(output_file): Detect \r chars in file names.
(digest_check): Ignore literal \r char at EOL.
* tests/misc/md5sum.pl: Add a test case.
* tests/misc/sha1sum.pl: Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
Support `cksum --check FILE` without having to specify a digest
algorithm, allowing for more generic file check instructions.
This also supports mixed digest checksum files, supporting
more robust multi digest checks.
* src/digest.c (algorithm_from_tag): A new function to
identify the digest algorithm from a tagged format line.
(split3): Set the algorithm depending on tag, and update
the expected digest length accordingly.
* tests/misc/cksum-c.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.

* tests/misc/sm3sum.pl: Add a new test (from Tianjia Zhang)
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
Tested-by: Tianjia Zhang <tianjia.zhang@linux.alibaba.com>
* src/digest.c: Organize HASH_ALGO_CKSUM to be table driven,
and amalgamate all digest algorithms.
(main): Parse all options if HASH_ALGO_CKSUM, and disallow
--tag, --zero, and --check with the traditional bsd, sysv, and crc
checksums for now.
* src/local.mk: Reorganize to include all digest modules in cksum.
* tests/misc/cksum-a.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/misc/b2sum.sh: Update to default to checking with cksum,
as b2sum's implementation diverges a bit from the others.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cksum invocation): Adjust the summary to
identify the new mode, and document the new --algorithm option.
* man/cksum.x: Adjust description to be more general.
* man/*sum.x: Add [See Also] section referencing cksum(1).
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
Adjust to output the file name if any name parameter is passed.
This is consistent with sum -s, cksum, and sum implementations
on other platforms. This should not cause significant compat
issues, as multiple fields are already output, and so already
need to be parsed.
* src/sum.c (bsd_sum_file): Output the file name
if any name parameter is passed.
* tests/misc/sum.pl: Adjust accordingly.
* doc/coreutils.texi (sum invocation): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
Emil Lundberg <lundberg.emil@gmail.com> reports in

The input buffer length was not divisible by 3, resulting in
decoding errors.
* NEWS: Mention fix.
* src/basenc.c (DEC_BLOCKSIZE): Change from 1024*5 to 4200 (35*3*5*8)
which is divisible by 3,4,5,8 - satisfying both base32 and base64;
Use compile-time verify() macro to enforce the above.
* tests/misc/basenc.pl: Add test.
Problem reported by Michael Debertol (Bug#50070).
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
* src/chmod.c (struct change_status): New struct, replacing the
old enum Change_status. All uses changed.
(describe_change): Distinguish between cases depending on
whether 'stat' or its equivalent succeeded. Report a line
of output even if 'stat' failed, as that matches the documentation.
Rework to avoid casts.
(process_file): Do not output nonsense modes computed from
uninitialized storage, removing a couple of IF_LINTs. Simplify by
defaulting to CH_NO_STAT.
If the command-line argument is automounted, df would use
stat info that became wrong after the following open.
* NEWS: Mention the fix (bug#50012).

All uses changed.
(long_options): Rename --null to --zero.
(dired_dump_obstack, main, print_dir): Use '\n' instead of
eolbyte where eolbyte must equal '\n'.
(decode_switches): Decode --zero instead of --null.
--zero also implies -1, -N, --color=none, --show-control-chars.
Use easier-to-decipher code to set ‘format’ and ‘dired’.
Reject attempts to combine --dired and --zero.
* tests/local.mk: Adjust to test script renaming.
* tests/ls/zero-option.sh: Rename from tests/ls/null-option.sh,
and test --zero instead of --null.
As originally reported in <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1962515>,
df invoked without -a printed duplicated entries for NFS mounts
of bind mounts. This is a regression from commit v8.25-54-g1c17f61ef99,
which introduced the use of a hash table.
The proposed patch makes sure that the devlist entry seen the last time
is used for comparison when eliminating duplicated mount entries. This
way it worked before introducing the hash table.
Patch co-authored by Roberto Bergantinos.
* src/ls.c (struct devlist): Introduce the seen_last pointer.
(devlist_for_dev): Return the devlist entry seen the last time if found.
(filter_mount_list): Remember the devlist entry seen the last time for
each hashed item.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.

This fixes an unlikely stack out-of-bounds write reported by
Stepan Broz via Kamil Dudka (Bug#49209).
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Replace select with poll.
* src/tail.c: Do not include <sys/select.h>.
[!_AIX]: Include poll.h.
(check_output_alive) [!_AIX]: Use poll instead of select.
(tail_forever_inotify): Likewise. Simplify logic, as there is no
need for a ‘while (len <= evbuf_off)’ loop.
* src/stat.c (default_format): Use decomposed decimal
representation (major,minor) in the default format.
This is least ambiguous for human interpretation,
and more consistent with ls for example.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/48960
In preparation for changing the default device number
representation (to decomposed decimal), provide more
formatting options for device numbers.
These new (FreeBSD compat) formatting options are added:
%Hd major device number in decimal (st_dev)
%Ld minor device number in decimal (st_dev)
%Hr major device type in decimal (st_rdev)
%Lr minor device type in decimal (st_rdev)
%r (composed) device type in decimal (st_rdev)
%R (composed) device type in hex (st_rdev)
* doc/coreutils.texi (stat invocation): Document new formats.
* src/stat.c (print_it): Handle the new %H and %L modifiers.
(print_statfs): Adjust to passing the format as two chars
rather than an int. Using an int was introduced in commit db42ae78,
but using separate chars is cleaner and more extensible.
(print_stat): Likewise. Handle any modifiers and the new 'r' format.
(usage): Document the new formats.
* tests/misc/stat-fmt.sh: Add a test case for new modifiers.

(pclmul_supported): Diagnose various failures and attempts.
* NEWS: Mention the new option.
GNU/Linux is unusual here in that rmdir("symlink/") returns ENOTDIR,
whereas Solaris and FreeBSD at least, will follow the symlink
and remove the target directory. We don't make the behavior
on Linux kernels consistent, but at least clarify
the confusing error message.
* src/rmdir (main): Output a specific error message for the above case.
(remove_parents): In the error message, don't assume intermediate paths
are directories, as they could be symlinks.
