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/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.
* 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.
* 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.
* tests/misc/io-errors.sh: Verify that all commands diagnose write
errors, and handle a closed pipe appropriately.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
This improvement is due to changes to Gnulib's fprintftime module.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/getlimits.c (OFF64_T_MAX, OFF64_T_MIN): New macros.
(main): Print them.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Call getlimits_. Add a date invocation.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/fmt.c (put_line): Exit if any error writing line.
(flush_paragraph): Exit if any error writing buffer.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Enable the (flush_paragraph) test case,
and add another to check the put_line() case.
* src/numfmt.c (process line): Inspect the stdio error state when
outputting each line so that we don't have to check each output function
but do eventually exit upon write error, while also remaining buffered.
(main): Also check when outputting a header for the edge case
of very long headers.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Enable the numfmt test case.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement, and reorganize all numfmt improvements.
* tests/numfmt/mb-non-utf8.sh: Test GB18030 delimiter search.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test, and move
the existing numfmt.pl test from tests/misc to tests/numfmt.
* bootstrap.conf: Depend on mbsstr() to robustly search for a
multi-byte delimiter character (string) within a multi-byte string.
* src/numfmt.c (main): Accept a valid multi-byte delimiter character.
(next_field): Adjust delimiter search from single byte
to multi-byte aware. Use mbsstr to find the first match.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test case.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/numfmt.c (process_line): Restore byte overwritten with NUL,
as it may be part of a multi-byte blank.
(process_suffixed_number): Skip multi-byte blanks,
and correctly determine width with mbswidth().
(parse_format_string): Use c_isblank() to explicitly
indicate that's all the format spec supports.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Output, accept, or disallow a string between the number and unit
as recommended in <https://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html>
I.e. support outputting numbers of the form: "1234 M"
* src/numfmt.c (simple_strtod_human): Skip unit separator if present,
or disallow a unit separator if empty.
(double_to_human): Output unit separator if specified.
(main): Accept --unit-separator.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test cases.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Describe the new option,
giving examples of interaction with --delimiter.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* THANKS.in: Add Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues,
who provided a preliminary patch.
This does not validate grouping character placement,
and currently just ignores grouping characters.
* src/numfmt.c (simple_strtod_int): Skip grouping chars
that are part of a number.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/numfmt.c (simple_strtod_human): Accept (multi-byte)
non-breaking space character between number and unit.
Note we restrict this to a single character between number
and unit, to allow less ambiguous parsing if multiple blanks
are used to delimit fields.
* tests/misc/numfmt.pl: Add test cases.
* doc/coreutils.texi (numfmt invocation): Fix stale description
--delimiter skipping whitespace.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
This avoids CWE-122: Heap-based Buffer Overflow
where we could write blank characters beyond
the allocated heap buffer.
* src/expand-common.c (set_max_column_width): Refactor function from ...
(add_tab_stop): ... here.
(set_extend_size): Call new function.
(set_increment_size): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/79555
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Use printf rather than echo
since the echo builtin in dash will interpret backslashes.
* tests/misc/read-errors.sh: Likewise for consistency.
This was noticed with:
trap '' PIPE && # Ignore SIGPIPE
make check TESTS=tests/fold/fold-characters.sh SUBDIRS=.
* tests/fold/fold-characters.sh: Move memory limit test to ...
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: ... which avoids "write error"
messages on stderr due to the ignored SIGPIPE. It also protects
the fold invocation with a timeout(1) so that fold implementations
that don't exit promptly upon write error don't hang the test suite
(Like we would have done before commit v9.7-311-gc95c7ee76).
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/fold.c (fold_file): Check for write errors
after each buffer read from stdin.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Add test cases.
The meaning of non-file permission umask bits is implementation defined.
On Bionic libc, attempting to set them triggers a FORTIFY runtime check.
$ nohup true
FORTIFY: umask: called with invalid mask -601
Aborted nohup true
* src/nohup.c: (main) Avoid setting non-permission bits in umask.
Just clear the umask to ensure we create nohup.out with u+rw,
as we restore the original umask before the exec().
* tests/misc/nohup.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
This implicitly tests the previous commit to
adjust how date(1) handles multiple named format options.
Currrently it tests the following are supported:
chown --quiet --silent
date --rfc-email --rfc-822 --rfc-2822
date --uct --utc --universal
dircolors --bourne-shell --sh
dircolors --csh --c-shell
head --quiet --silent
* tests/misc/option-aliases.sh: A new test to ensure all
option aliases supported by a command are supported.
* Reference the new test.
