* split: advise the kernel of sequential access patternPádraig Brady2023-05-081-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As split is often dealing with large files, ensure we indicate to the kernel our sequential access pattern. This was seen to operate 5% faster when reading from SSD, as tested with: dd bs=1M count=2K if=/dev/urandom of=big.in for split in split.orig split; do # Ensure big file is not cached dd of=big.in oflag=nocache conv=notrunc,fdatasync count=0 status=none # Test read efficiency CWD=$PWD; (cd /dev/shm && time $CWD/src/$split -n2 $CWD/big.in) done real 0m9.039s user 0m0.055s sys 0m3.510s real 0m8.568s user 0m0.056s sys 0m3.752s * src/split.c (main): Use fdadvise to help the kernel choose a more appropriate readahead buffer. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* cp: -p --parents: fix failure to preserve permissions for absolute pathsPádraig Brady2023-05-031-0/+4
| | | | | | | * src/cp.c (re_protect): Ensure copy_acl() is passed an absolute path. * tests/cp/cp-parents.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the bug. Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/63245
* pr: fix infinite loop when double spacingPádraig Brady2023-04-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | * src/pr.c (init_parameters): Ensure we avoid a 0 lines_per_body which was possible when adjusting for double spacing. That caused print_page() to always return true, causing an infinite loop. * tests/pr/pr-tests.pl: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Fixes https://bugs.debian.org/1034808
* copy: reduce verbosity of -i and -u with --verbosePádraig Brady2023-04-251-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since skipping of files is central to the operation of -i and -u, and with -u one may be updating few files out of many, reinstate the verbosity of this functionality as it was before 9.3. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Only output "skipped" message with --debug. Also adjust so message never changes with --debug. * tests/cp/cp-i.sh: Adjust accordingly. * tests/mv/mv-n.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/debug.sh: Add explicit test case for message. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.

* cp,mv: issue "skipped" messages when skipping filesPádraig Brady2023-04-081-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior to issue a "not replaced" error diagnostic with -n, and the "skipped" message with -v. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Adjust to output the "skipped" messages depending on -i, -n, -u. * tests/cp/cp-i.sh: Adjust accordingly. * tests/mv/mv-n.sh: Likewise.
* cp,mv: add --update=none to always skip existing filesPádraig Brady2023-04-081-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add --update=none which is equivalent to the --no-clobber behavior from before coreutils 9.2. I.e. existing files are unconditionally skipped, and them not being replaced does not affect the exit status. * src/copy.h [enum Update_type]: A new type to support parameters to the --update command line option. [enum Interactive]: Add I_ALWAYS_SKIP. * src/copy.c: Treat I_ALWAYS_SKIP like I_ALWAYS_NO (-n), except that we don't fail when skipping. * src/system.h (emit_update_parameters_note): A new function to output the description of the new --update parameters. * src/cp.c (main): Parse --update arguments, ensuring that -n takes precedence if specified. (usage): Describe the new option. Also allude that -u is related in the -n description. * src/mv.c: Accept the new --update parameters and update usage() accordingly. * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Describe the new --update parameters. Also reference --update from the --no-clobber description. (mv invocation): Likewise. * tests/mv/update.sh: Test the new parameters. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. Addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/62572
* cp: fix --backup with subdirectoriesPádraig Brady2023-04-041-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | * gnulib: Reference the latest gnulib including the fix to the backupfile module in commit 94496522. * tests/cp/backup-dir.sh: Add a test to ensure we rename appropriately when backing up through subdirs. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/62607
* wc: diagnose overflow of total countsPádraig Brady2023-03-311-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | * src/wc.c (wc): Use INT_ADD_WRAPV() to detect overflow. (main): Upon overflow, saturate the total, print a diagnostic, and set exit status. * tests/misc/wc-total.sh: Add a test case, which operates on BTRFS and 64 bit systems at least. Reported at https://bugs.debian.org/1027100
* dircolors: diagnose read errorsPádraig Brady2023-03-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | * NEWS: Mention the fix. * src/dircolors.c: Fail upon read error from getline(). * tests/misc/dircolors.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.

| | | | | | * NEWS: Also mention this bug fix. * tests/misc/date-f.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* copy: fix --reflink=auto to fallback in more casesPádraig Brady2023-03-241-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On restricted systems like android or some containers, FICLONE could return EPERM, EACCES, or ENOTTY, which would have induced the command to fail to copy rather than falling back to a more standard copy. * src/copy.c (is_terminal_failure): A new function refactored from handle_clone_fail(). (is_CLONENOTSUP): Merge in the handling of EACCES, ENOTTY, EPERM as they also pertain to determination of whether cloning is supported if we ever use this function in that context. (handle_clone_fail): Use is_terminal_failure() in all cases, so that we assume a terminal failure in less errno cases. * NEWS: Mention the bug fix. Addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/62404
* doc: add a NEWS entry for the previous fixPádraig Brady2023-03-241-0/+5

* ls: --color: honor separate sequences for extension casesPádraig Brady2023-03-131-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Following on from commit v8.29-45-g24053fbd8 which unconditionally used case insensitive extension matching, support selective case sensitive matching when there are separate extension cases defined with different display sequences. * src/dircolors.hin: Document how file name suffixes are matched. Note this is displayed with `dircolors --print-database` which the texi info recommends to use for details. * src/ls.c (parse_ls_color): Postprocess the list to mark entries for case sensitive matching, and also adjust so that unmatchable entries are more quickly ignored. (get_color_indicator): Use exact matching rather than case insensitive matching if so marked. * tests/ls/color-ext.sh: Add test cases. * NEWS: Mention the change in behavior. Addresses https://bugs.gnu.org/33123
* tee: support non blocking outputsPádraig Brady2023-03-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non blocking outputs can be seen for example when piping telnet through tee to a terminal. In that case telnet sets its input to nonblocking mode, which results in tee's output being nonblocking, in which case in may receive an EAGAIN error upon write(). The same issue was seen with mpirun. The following can be used to reproduce this locally at a terminal (in most invocations): $ { dd iflag=nonblock count=0 status=none; dd bs=10K count=10 if=/dev/zero status=none; } | tee || echo fail >/dev/tty * src/iopoll.c (iopoll_internal): A new function refactored from iopoll(), to also support a mode where we check the output descriptor is writeable. (iopoll): Now refactored to just call iopoll_internal(). (fwait_for_nonblocking_write): A new internal function which uses iopoll_internal() to wait for writeable output if an EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK was received. (fwrite_nonblock): An fwrite() wrapper which uses fwait_for_nonblocking_write() to handle EAGAIN. (fclose_nonblock): Likewise. src/iopoll.h: Add fclose_nonblock, fwrite_nonblock. src/tee.c: Call fclose_nonblock() and fwrite_nonblock wrappers, instead of the standard functions. * tests/misc/tee.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the improvement. The idea was suggested by Kamil Dudka in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1615467
* doc: remove redundant NEWS entryPádraig Brady2023-03-081-4/+0
| | | | | * NEWS: There was no bug on macOS, and the split -n new feature is documented already.
* split: support split -n on larger pipe inputPaul Eggert2023-03-071-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add free-posix, tmpfile. * src/split.c (copy_to_tmpfile): New function. (input_file_size): Use it to split larger files when sizes cannot easily be determined via fstat or lseek. See Bug#61386#235. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Mark tests of /dev/zero as very expensive since they exhaust /tmp.
* du: --apparent counts only symlinks and regularPaul Eggert2023-03-041-0/+5
| | | | | | | | Problem reported by Christoph Anton Mitterer (Bug#61884). * src/du.c (process_file): When counting apparent sizes, count only usable st_size members. * tests/du/apparent.sh: New file. * tests/local.mk (all_root_tests): Add it.
* split: handle large numbers betterPaul Eggert2023-03-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prefer signed types to uintmax_t, as this allows for better runtime checking with gcc -fsanitize=undefined. Also, when an integer overflows just use the maximal value when the code will do the right thing anyway. * src/split.c (set_suffix_length, bytes_split, lines_split) (line_bytes_split, lines_chunk_split, bytes_chunk_extract) (lines_rr, parse_chunk, main): Prefer a signed type (typically intmax_t) to uintmax_t. (strtoint_die): New function. (OVERFLOW_OK): New macro. Use it elsewhere, where we now allow LONGINT_OVERFLOW because the code then does the right thing on all practical platforms (they have int wide enough so that it cannot be practically exhausted). We can do this now that we can safely assume intmax_t has at least 64 bits. (parse_n_units): New function. (parse_chunk, main): Use it. (main): Do not worry about integer overflow when the code will do the right thing anyway with the extreme value. Just use the extreme value. * tests/split/fail.sh: Adjust to match new behavior.
* split: port ‘split -n N /dev/null’ better to macOSPaul Eggert2023-03-041-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * src/split.c (input_file_size): Do not bother with lseek if the initial read probe reaches EOF, since the file size is known then. This works better on macOS, which doesn’t allow lseek on /dev/null. Do not special-case size-zero files, as the issue can occur with any size file (though /proc files are the most common). If the current position is past end of file, treat this as size zero regardless of whether the file has a usable st_size. Pass through lseek -1 return values rather than using ‘return -1’; this makes the code a bit easier to analyze (and a bit faster). Avoid undefined behavior if the size calculation overflows. (lines_chunk_split): Do not bother with lseek if it would have no effect if successful. This works better on macOS, which doesn’t allow lseek on /dev/null. * tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Adjust to match fixed behavior.
* maint: fix NEWS quotingPaul Eggert2023-03-041-1/+1
| | | | * NEWS: Use English-language quoting in recent news.
* split: split more evenly with -nPaul Eggert2023-03-041-0/+5
| | | | | | | | * src/split.c (bytes_split): New arg REM_BYTES. Use this to split more evenly. All callers changed. (lines_chunk_split, bytes_chunk_extract): Be consistent with new byte_split. * tests/split/b-chunk.sh, tests/split/l-chunk.sh: Test new behavior.
* tee: enhance -p mode using iopoll() to detect broken pipe outputsCarl Edquist2023-02-281-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If input is intermittent (a tty, pipe, or socket), and all remaining outputs are pipes (eg, >(cmd) process substitutions), exit early when they have all become broken pipes (and thus future writes will fail), without waiting for more input to become available, as future write attempts to these outputs will fail (SIGPIPE/EPIPE). Only provide this enhancement when pipe errors are ignored (-p mode). Note that only one output needs to be monitored at a time with iopoll(), as we only want to exit early if _all_ outputs have been removed. * src/tee.c (pipe_check): New global for iopoll mode. (main): enable pipe_check for -p, as long as output_error ignores EPIPE, and input is suitable for iopoll(). (get_next_out): Helper function for finding next valid output. (fail_output, tee_files): Break out write failure/output removal logic to helper function. (tee_files): Add out_pollable array to track which outputs are suitable for iopoll() (ie, that are pipes); track first output index that is still valid; add iopoll() broken pipe detection before calling read(), removing an output that becomes a broken pipe. * src/local.mk (src_tee_SOURCES): include src/iopoll.c. * NEWS: Mention tee -p enhancement in Improvements. * doc/coreutils.texi: Mention the new early exit behavior in the nopipe modes for the tee -p option. Suggested-by: Arsen Arsenović <arsen@aarsen.me>
* build: update to latest gnulibPádraig Brady2023-02-271-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | * NEWS: Mention the fts fix to avoid the following assert in rm on mem pressure: Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. at ../lib/cycle-check.c:60 assure (state->magic == CC_MAGIC); * gnulib: Update to the latest to pick up fts commit f17d3977.
* cp,install,mv: add --debug to explain how a file is copiedPádraig Brady2023-02-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | How a file is copied is dependent on the sparseness of the file, what file system it is on, what file system the destination is on, the attributes of the file, and whether they're being copied or not. Also the --reflink and --sparse options directly impact the operation. Given it's hard to reason about the combination of all of the above, the --debug option is useful for users to directly identify if copy offloading, reflinking, or sparse detection are being used. It will also be useful for tests to directly query if these operations are supported. The new output looks as follows: $ src/cp --debug src/cp file.sparse 'src/cp' -> 'file.sparse' copy offload: yes, reflink: unsupported, sparse detection: no $ truncate -s+1M file.sparse $ src/cp --debug file.sparse file.sparse.cp 'file.sparse' -> 'file.sparse.cp' copy offload: yes, reflink: unsupported, sparse detection: SEEK_HOLE $ src/cp --reflink=never --debug file.sparse file.sparse.cp 'file.sparse' -> 'file.sparse.cp' copy offload: avoided, reflink: no, sparse detection: SEEK_HOLE * doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Describe the --debug option. (mv invocation): Likewise. (install invocation): Likewise. * src/copy.h: Add a new DEBUG member to cp_options, to control whether to output debug info or not. * src/copy.c (copy_debug): A new global structure to unconditionally store debug into from the last copy_reg operations. (copy_debug_string, emit_debug): New functions to print debug info. * src/cp.c: if ("--debug") x->debug=true; * src/install.c: Likewise. * src/mv.c: Likewise. * tests/cp/debug.sh: Add a new test. * tests/local.mk: Reference the new test. * NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* rm: --dir (-d): fix bugs in handling of empty, inaccessible directoriesJim Meyering2023-02-211-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * src/remove.c (prompt, rm_fts): In the dir-handling code of both of these functions, relax a "get_dir_status (...) == DS_EMPTY" condition to instead test only "get_dir_status (...) != 0", enabling flow control to reach the prompt function also for unreadable directories. However, that function itself also needed special handling for this case: (prompt): Handle empty, inaccessible directories properly, deleting them with -d (--dir), and prompting about whether to delete with -i (--interactive). * tests/rm/empty-inacc.sh: Add tests for the new code. Reported by наб <nabijaczleweli@nabijaczleweli.xyz> in bugs.debian.org/1015273 * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention this.
* cp: fclonefileat security fix + CLONE_ACL + fixupsPaul Eggert2023-02-161-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * src/copy.c: Some changes if HAVE_FCLONEFILEAT && !USE_XATTR. (fd_has_acl): New function. (CLONE_ACL): Default to 0. (copy_reg): Use CLONE_NOFOLLOW to avoid races like CVE-2021-30995 <https://www.trendmicro.com/en_us/research/22/a/ analyzing-an-old-bug-and-discovering-cve-2021-30995-.html>. Use CLONE_ACL if available and working, falling back to cloning without it if it fails due to EINVAL. If the only problem with fclonefileat is that it would create the file with the wrong timestamp, or with too few permissions, do that but fix the timestamp and permissions afterwards, rather than falling back on a traditional copy.
