* tests/chgrp/from.sh: If 'id' cannot find a user name for user id 1,
expect the user id to be printed in the message of 'chgrp'.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
This fixes test failures seen on Haiku.
* tests/ls/recursive.sh: Run 'ls' even if ulimit fails.
* tests/split/r-chunk.sh: Run 'split' even if ulimit fails.
* tests/sort/sort-merge-fdlimit.sh: Skip test if 'ulimit -n' cannot set
file descriptor limits.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
This is a more standard mechanism to disable markup.
* src/system.h (oputs_): Logic change to honor TERM=dumb,
rather than HELP_NO_MARKUP=something.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Adjust the description for --help.
* man/local.mk: Ensure TERM is set to something,
so that man pages have links included.
* man/viewman: Just honor users $TERM.
* tests/misc/getopt_vs_usage.sh: Remove env var complication,
as TERM is unset automatically.
* tests/misc/usage_vs_refs.sh: Likewise.
* NEWS: Adjust the change in behavior note.
* tests/tee/tee.sh: If dd failed, then tee would spin
writing to the fifo forever, so add a timeout protection.
This was noticed with `export LD_PRELOAD=libasan.so.8`
with a non ASAN build, which induced a failure in dd invocations.
* init.cfg (sanitizer_build_): Add a helper to detect if a program
is built against a sanitizer.
* tests/df/no-mtab-status-masked-proc.sh: Skip if a sanitizer build.
* src/ls.c (quote_name): Use ST (ESC \) rather than BEL,
as that's the only terminator mentioned in at least
ECMA-48, DEC STD 070, and EK-VT520-RM.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
* tests/ls/hyperlink.sh: Adjust accordingly.
Suggested by Egmont Koblinger.
* tests/misc/usage_vs_refs.sh: A new test to correlation options
listed in --help, and anchors referenced in the texinfo (html) manual.
* tests/local.mk: Add the new test.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Add missing anchors.
* src/pr.c (Usage): Adjust to use -COLS, to avoid a clash
with the additional anchor added to the manual.
Also markup the --columns option as done for other options.
* tests/split/line-bytes.sh: Also fix --lines-bytes typo here.
* src/ls.c (oputs): A new function that wraps puts(),
but also highlights the --option-text portion, and
adds links to the appropriate part of the online manual.
(usage): Call oputs() rather than puts().
* doc/coreutils.texi (--help): Document new HELP_NO_MARKUP env var,
which can be used in the edge case one wants to suppress ansi escapes.
* tests/misc/getopt_vs_usage.sh: Use HELP_NO_MARKUP to ensure the
test continues to pass.
* tests/misc/sync.sh: Check 'sync fifo' with no arguments, -d, and -f
separately. Only perform the check for -f if RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes
since it may be expensive.
A simpler fix than commit v9.9-4-g3b6efd555
which is less dependent on the exact behavior
of a multi-call binary.
* tests/env/env.sh: Use a local script rather than 'true'.
which may be a symlinked multi-call binary.
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/pull/174
* tests/misc/coreutils.sh: Be more flexibile by using `command -v`
to identify the binary to be executed, rather than linking
directly to the built binary.
Setup
$ ln -nsf src/coreutils foo
Before
$ ./foo; echo $?
foo: unknown program ‘foo’
Try './foo --help' for more information.
1
./foo --version; echo $?
coreutils (GNU coreutils) 9.9.172-01993
0
After
$ ./foo; echo $?
coreutils: unknown program 'foo'
1
$ ./foo --version; echo $?
coreutils: unknown program 'foo'
1
* src/coreutils.c (main): Don't process options if
we don't know they're intended for the multi-call binary.
Otherwise `foo --version` would return true, even though
foo was symlinked to the multi-call binary, but not supported.
* tests/misc/coreutils.sh: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
* tests/misc/read-errors.sh: Ensure each utility calls a
read system call as requested. Not doing so (say by avoiding
reading from a directory) is a layering violation.
Also ensure we diagnose the particular error encountered.
* src/paste.c (collapse_escapes): This is the central --delimiters
parsing function, so adjust to handle multi-byte chars with
mcel_scanz(). Populate a delimiters length array to support
characters of differing lengths.
(paste_serial): Use the delimiters length array to output
the appropriate delimiter.
(paste_parallel): Likewise.
* tests/paste/multi-byte.sh: A new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/cksum.c (output_file, digest_check): Check if standard output has
it's error flag set after printing.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Add a test case that would previously run
forever.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement. Reorder alphabetically.
We disallow `cksum --tag --check` which is fine,
but the error should be consistent with md5sum,
and less confusing, as it currently mentions
"--binary" and "--text" which weren't specified.
We disallow `cksum --tag --text` which is fine,
but we should also disallow `cksum --text --tag`.
We should honor an explicit --binary (output *)
with this combination of options:
cksum --binary --tag --untagged -a md5 /dev/null
Note this also makes both of `cksum -a md5` and
`cksum --tag -a md5` consistently use binary mode
when reading from a tty on systems like MinGW
where O_BINARY is set.
* src/cksum.c (main): Adjust --text,--binary
and --tag,--untagged option processing.
* tests/cksum/cksum-a.sh: Add test cases.
* tests/cksum/cksum-c.sh: Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
Fixes https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/issues/163
* tests/chmod/partial-fail.sh: Test readablility of mode 0 files
independently, to avoid false failure, e.g., when run as root.
Reported by Bruno Haible.
* tests/tail/overlay-headers.sh (cleanup_): Ensure we send SIGCONT
to the tail process, otherwise we would hang if the test is terminated
while the tail process is in stopped state.
(wait4stopped_): A new function to ensure tail is in the stopped state
before we start writing to the monitored files.
Also remove "---disable-inotify" from $fastpoll so we actually
test the inotify code (where supported).
Also remove the timeout(1) wrapper, so we actually suspend tail(1).
Reported by Bruno Haible on macOS 26
This aligns with `fold -w` and BSD `fmt` implementations.
* src/fmt.c (fmt_paragraph): Check len <= max_width.
* tests/fmt/width.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
Addresses part of https://bugs.gnu.org/79497
* init.cfg (bad_unicode): New function, copied from
tests/fold/fold-characters.sh with the NUL removed.
* tests/fold/fold-characters.sh (bad_unicode): Rename to
bad_unicode_with_nul. Reformat long line.
* tests/mktemp/bad-unicode.sh: New test.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add the new test.
* tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh: This test was invalid since v8.32
as we now use fstatat() rather than stat(). Also since commit
v9.0-66-ge2daa8f79 we leverage the errno from open(O_DIRECTORY)
to avoid a stat, so pass --no-target-directory to ensure fstatat()
is called.
