Ghazi. + +1994-09-27 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * diffarch.c: Normalize capitalization in diagnostics. + +1994-09-26 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * tar.c (name_next, name_match): Abort tar if directory cannot + be changed, instead of going on. This is not an innocuous error. + Reported by Marty Leisner. + +1994-09-15 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * rtapelib.c: Include "rmt.h" only once <sys/types.h> has been + included, because off_t might not be defined otherwise. + Reported by James W. McKelvey, John L. Chmielewski, Karl + Vogel, Kaveh R. Ghazi an and Jim Meyering and Tilman Schmidt. + +1994-09-14 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * Makefile.in: Cleanup... + (DISTFILES): Distribute TAGS. + (ansi2knr): Use $(LIBS). + (TAGS): Make TAGS in $(srcdir) only. + (distclean): Do not remove TAGS. + (realclean): Remove TAGS. + (Makefile): Have ./config.status create this Makefile only. + +1994-09-13 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * buffer.c: Remove the presetting of stdlis, because stdout is + not a constant in GNU libc. + Reported by Joseph E.

Ghazi, Marty Leisner, + Torkel Hasle and William Bader. + + Because --rsh-command may always be given, even if no remote shell + was found at configure time, remote capabilities are always + compiled. This also solve other problems related to RTAPELIB. + * Makefile.in: Always compile $Urtapelib.o. + * buffer.c (child_open): Always test _remdev, do not depend + anymore on HAVE_RTAPELIB. + * rmt.h [!HAVE_RTAPELIB]: Remove some code. + Reported by Andreas Schwab and Vic Abell. + + * rtapelib.c: Remove unused COMPAT (mis)feature. Remove most + length limitations for remote host name, remote user name and + remote device name.

Remove code for that case. + +1994-08-22 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + Little cleanup in installation: + * Makefile.in: Remove rule for ../lib/libtar.a. + +1994-08-21 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * Prerelease 1.11.5. + + * Makefile.in: Correct for when a different build directory. + + * tar.h: Replace W* definitions. Adapted from make 3.71. + * buffer.c (close_archive): Replace WIFCOREDUMPED by + WCOREDUMP. Previous WIFSIGNALED definition was excluding SIGSTOP, + new definition do not exclude it anymore. We'll see. + Reported by Demizu Noritoshi, Greg Black, Kaveh R. Ghazi, + Robert E. Brown and Russ Evans. + +1994-08-20 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + This might (?) solve the dirent problems on NeXT's and Apollo's: + * tar.h: Change includes and defines from older AC_DIR_HEADER + style to newer and clearer AC_HEADER_DIRENT style. + * create.c, gnu.c: Replace NLENGTH by NAMLEN. + Reported by Drew Trieger, Hugh Secker-Walker, James W. McKelvey, + Robert E. Brown and Thomas Krebs. + +1994-08-17 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + Remove some shadowings. + * update.c (update_archive): Rename head_standard to unused. + * buffer.c (open_archive): Rename head to label. + (fl_read): Rename head to cursor. + + * gnu.c (dirent_cmp): Use (char *const *), not (const char **) + for not loosing the const specifier while casting. + + * mangle.c (extract_mangle): Remove unused argument. + * tar.h: Adjust prototype. + * extract.c (extract_archive): Caller changed. + + * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): Remove useless mode parameter. + * rmt.h, tar.h: Adjust prototype. + * rmt.h: Adjust macros calling __rmt_open. + * create.c (deal_with_sparse): Remove unused argument. + * create.c (dump_file): Caller changed. + Reported by Greg Black. + + * Makefile.in: Avoid $U in defining RTAPELIB. Remove both + rtapelib.o and _urtapelib.o explicit rules, not needed anymore. + * rmt.h, buffer.c [HAVE_RTAPELIB]: Instead of !NO_REMOTE. + Reported by Andreas Schwab. + + * Makefile.in: Correct a typo in $Ubuffer.o dependencies. + Reported by Andreas Schwab. + + * rtapelib.c (__rmt_ioctl): Compile the MTIOCGET case only if + this symbol is defined. This also solves a missing mt_type field + on NS32016 running SysVr2.2. + Reported by Greg Black. + + * rtapelib.c (__rmt_ioctl) : Conditionnalize only the MTIOCTOP + case, not the whole routine, with the MTIOCTOP symbol. In case of + unrecognized operation, return EOPNOTSUPP instead of EINVAL. + * rmt.h: Always provide a prototype for __rmt_ioctl. Delete + the RMTIOCTL machinery. + +1994-08-16 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * rmt.c, buffer.c: Use a more uniform way of including + <sys/mtio.h> or its alternates. + Reported by Daniel R. Guilderson and Kaveh R. Ghazi. + + * Makefile.in: Split rule for $Urtapelib.o into one rule for + rtapelib.o and one rule for _rtapelib.o, taking care of the fact + that rtapelib.c is in $(srcdir) while _rtapelib.c is in current + directory. + Reported by Andreas Schwab, Kaveh R.

Use the + global instead. This will get rid of useless shadowings. + + * rmt.h: Give prototypes for __rmt_* routines. + * rtapelib.c: Include "rmt.h". + * update.c (move_arch): Cast last rmtioctl argument to char *. + * buffer.c (backspace_output): Idem. + * diffarch.c (verify_volume): Idem. + + * Makefile.in (rmt): Declare dependencies over rmt.h. + +1994-08-14 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * rtapelib.c: Use MTIO_CHECK_FIELD instead of mt_type. + Reported by Ben A.

Mesander, Christian T. Dum and Kaveh R. Ghazi. + +1994-08-10 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * create.c (dump_file): Do not test only for hpux, but also + for __hpux. I added __hpux__ too, as done in tar.h. + Reported by Richard Lloyd. + + * tar.h: Do not include <sys/mknod.h> anymore for HP-UX from + HP-UX 8 and after, for which definitions are in <sys/sysmacros.h>, + and reorganize the tests in this area. + Reported by Christian T. Dum, Dimitris Fousekis, Kimmy Posey, + Michael Maass, Richard Lloyd and Thomas König. + +1994-08-09 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + These changes for const-cleaning gnu.c and tar.c: + * tar.c (read_name_from_file): Work directly on global + variables instead of accepting parameters. Return success or + failure as an int instead of the relocated name_buffer. + (name_next): Caller changed, internal clean-up of the function. + Remove trailing slashes on the command call too, not only when + reading from a file through -T option. + * gnu.c: Add const to name and dir_text in struct dirname. + Reported by Ben A. Mesander, Bruno Haible, Christian T. Dum, + Dean Gaudet, James W. McKelvey, Richard Lloyd and Robert E. Brown. + +1994-08-08 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * tar.c (name_next, name_gather, addname): Use strcmp for + checking for "-C", instead of decomposed tests, just for clarity. + + * Makefile.in (RSH): Define from configuration. + (rtapelib.o): Define REMOTE_SHELL from $(RSH) while compiling. + * rtapelib.c (__rmt_open): If command not given, use + REMOTE_SHELL, instead of cascading tries of filenames. + Reported by Bruno Haible. + + * tar.c: Include <fnmatch.h> if FNM_LEADING_DIR is not + defined, instead of checking for FNM_PATHNAME, because some + <unistd.h> define the later without defining the former. + Reported by Thomas König. + + * create.c (dump_file): Cast alloca results, for those + compilers not processing void * properly. + Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi. + + * Makefile.in: Get prefix and exec_prefix from configure. + Reported by Andreas Schwab, Christian T. Dum and Dean Gaudet. + + * src/port.c: Delete mkdir (and rmdir), rename, strstr and + ftruncate replacements. + Reported by Kaveh R.

Why play the game of + forcing the compiler to do it for us? (Hum! I'm not so sure.) + Reported by Bruno Haible. + + * list.c (read_header): Initialize signed_sum to 0. Use this + opportunity for slightly reorganizing the code around. + Reported by Anders Andersson, Andrey A. Chernov, Bruno Haible + and Chris Ransom. + + * tar.c: Declare name_buffer_length as size_t instead of int. + Reported by Andreas Schwab, J.T. Conklin, Kaveh R. Ghazi and + Robert E. Brown. + + * rmt.h: Have the NO_REMOTE case be a particular case of the + other, for rmtopen and rmtcreat were not transmitting the proper + number of parameters to open and creat (since 26 July 1994). + Reported by Andreas Schwab. + + * extract.c (extract_archive): Delay changing owner to after + doing utime, for keeping long enough the permission of utime'ing. + (extract_archive, restore_saved_dir_info): Idem for directories. + Reported by Jonathan I. Kamens. + + * tar.h: Change malloc_dbg to dmalloc, mutatis mutandis. + + * tar.h: Undefine many macros if stat macros found to be + broken. Define mkfifo only if configure did not find it. + Include <sys/param.h> if not _POSIX_SOURCE, then <unistd.h> if + we have it, than "pathmax.h". Move _POSIX_VERSION dependent + code further down. Do not declare getcwd if we do not have it. + * tar.c: Do not include <unistd.h>, now in "tar.h". + Reported by Bernard Chen, Jean-Michel Soenen, John L. + Chmielewski and Kaveh R. Ghazi. + + * tar.h: Define DEV_BSIZE, ST_BLKSIZE and ST_NBLOCKS, + borrowing this code from both fileutils-3.9's "lib/system.h" and + textutils-1.9's "system.h". + * create.c (dump_file): Straighten the test for sparseness, + which was requiring one block too much, most probably for trying + to get around DEV_BSIZE/st_blksize confusion. Use ST_NBLOCKS, + instead of computing a variable block_size and doing specific + tests for HP-UX or Linux. Also rewrite the test so it works + when ST_NBLOCKS is unsigned. + Reported by Bruno Haible, Dean Gaudet, Dick Streefland, Harald + König, Jim Meyering, Kai Petzke, Kaveh R.

NAMSIZ + 2 is not necessarily enough. + +1994-08-01 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * tar.h: Refresh str*/mem* configured declarations. Among + other things, this will solve previously missing #undef's. + * rmt.h: Revise strchr configured declaration. + * *.c: Replace bzero by memset, bcopy by memcpy, bcmp by + memcmp, index by strchr and rindex by strrchr. + * port.c: Delete functions bzero and bcmp, said to not exist + on Minix.

Just for clarity. + + * tar.h, tar.c, buffer.c: Replace ar_files by + archive_name_array, n_ar_files by archive_names and ar_files_len + by allocated_archive_names. Replace the index cur_ar_file by + archive_name_cursor, which is a cursor in archive_name_array. + + * tar.c (main): Move the initialization of + archive_name_array at beginning, taken from options routine. + Free it at end of main. + (options): Use xrealloc instead of ck_realloc for archive_name, + for the already saved names to be preserved. + Reported by Per Bojsen. + + * tar.h, tar.c: Replace name_file by namefile_name. + * tar.c: Replace n_ind by name_array, n_indused by names, + n_indalloc by allocated_names, and n_indscan by name_index. + Replace namef by name_file, n_argv by names_argv and n_argc by + names_argc. + (main): Make an initial allocation for name_array at beginning, + moved out from name_add, free it at end of main. + + * buffer.c (close_archive): Free ar_block at end. + +1994-07-30 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * tar.h [WITH_MALLOC_DBG]: Include "malloc_dbg.h". + + * create.c (create_archive): Do not attempt creating a + directory summary file if -G, since -G sets gnu_dumpfile to 0. + Reported by Alexander Dupuy. + + * create.c (dump_file): Avoid a NULL dereference with -G when + trying to dump an empty directory. + * gnu.c (add_dir_name): Same thing. + Reported by Rainer Orth. + + Correction for the improper `data differs' diagnostic given when + the continuation of a multi-volume was compared. + * diffarch.c (diff_archive): If multi-volume, update save_name + and save_totsize before calling wantbytes. + * buffer.c (wantbytes): If multi-volume, update save_sizeleft. + Reported by Andreas Schwab, Denis Fortin, François Pinard, + Hiroyuki Bessho, Olaf Schlueter, Simon Wright and Saul Lubkin. + +1994-07-30 François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca> + + * tar.c (options): Implement DEVICE_PREFIX and DENSITY_LETTER. + Reported by Danny R.

Also, skip any extended headers + if we need to when we skip over a file. (need to change the bit + about, if the size doesn't agree AND the file is NOT sparse, + then there's a discrepancy, because I added another field to + the header which should be able to deal with the sizes): If + the file is sparse, call the added routine "diff_sparse_files" + to compare. Also added routine "fill_in_sparse_array". + + * extract.c: extract_archive: added the switch LF_SPARSE to the + case statement as needed, and code to treat the sparse file. + At label "again_file", modified opening the file to see if we + should have O_APPEND be one of the modes. Added code at label + "extract_file" to call the new routine "extract_sparse_file" + when we have an LF_SPARSE flag. + + Note: really should erase the commented-out code in there, + because it's confusing. + + * update.c: made sure that if a file needed to be "skipped" + over, it would check to see if the linkflag was sparse, and if + so, would then make sure to skip over any "extended headers" + that might come after the header itself. Do so by calling + "skip_extended_headers". + + * create.c: create_archive: added code to detect a sparse file + when in the long case statement. Added ways to detect extended + headers, and label "extend" (ack! should get rid of that, is + atrocious). Call the new routine "finish_sparse_file" if the + linkflag is LF_SPARSE to write the info to the tape. Also added + routines "init_sparsearray", "deal_with_sparse", "clear_buffer", + "where_is_data", "zero_record", and "find_new_file_size". + + * tar.h: Added the #define's SPARSE_EXT_HDR and SPARSE_IN_HDR. + Added the struct sparse and the struct sp_array. Added the + linkflag LF_SPARSE. Changed the tar header in several ways: + - added an array of struct sparse's SPARSE_IN_HDR long + - added a char flag isextended + - added a char string realsize to store the true size of a sparse file + Added another choice to the union record called a struct + extended_header, which is an array of 21 struct sparse's and a + char isextended flag. Added flag f_sparse_file to list of flags. + + * tar.c: added long-named options to make tar compatible with + getopt_long, changed Makefile. + +1989-03-03 David MacKenzie (edf at rocky2.rockefeller.edu) +(I'm not completely sure all these have been integrated -- FP.) + + * buffer.c [USG]: ifdef'd out #include <sys/file.h>. + (close_archive): SysV doesn't have ftruncate, so substituted + fmtwrite (just copied the code for MS-DOS). + * create.c: Unos lacks <sys/sysmacros.h> so provided a substitute. + (start_header): Only strip leading paths if f_relative_paths is true. + * extract.c: + (extract_archive): Only strip leading paths if + f_relative_paths is true.

Define + size_t for Unos. + (mkdir): Add code to support Unos makedir sys call. + (getopt): Use malloc instead of alloca, because tar doesn't + use alloca anywhere else and many systems lack it. A few other + changes from the current version of getopt.c incorporated. + * rtape_lib.c: Undefine RMTIOCTL. Doesn't seem to be needed, + and can't compile on Unos/SysV with it defined. Might need to be + ifdef'd. + * tar.c: Alias addname to add_name and rmdir to deldir on Unos + due to C library weirdness. + (options): Recognize new -P option to set f_relative paths. + (describe): Clean up error message and add -P description. + * tar.h: Add variable, f_relative_paths, to cause tar to strip + leading `/' characters in pathnames during create and extract. + * tar.texinfo: Fixed a couple of typos, detected by texi2roff. + * update.c: Simulate <sys/sysmacros.h> for Unos. + +Previous releases by Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu) + + * Version 1.07 --- New version to go on beta tape with GCC 1.35. + Better USG support.
