Fix allocated size alignment in locales with multi-byte grouping chars.
Tested with: LC_ALL=sv_SE.utf8 ls --size --block-size=\'k
* src/ls.c (print_file_name_and_frills): Don't rely on
printf("%*s", width, string) to pad multi-byte strings appropriately.
Instead work out the padding required and use:
printf("%*s%s", padding, "", string) to pad multi-byte appropriately.
* tests/ls/block-size.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/79347
* src/digest.c (main): Don't saturate -l to BLAKE2B_MAX_LEN,

uses bounded memory.
* src/fold.c: Include ioblksize.h.
(fold_file): Use two IO_BUFSIZE-sized buffers. Use fread instead of
getline. Check for if we reached the end of file.
* tests/nproc/nproc-quota.sh: Also simulate sched_getscheduler()
as this will not be called on older or non linux, or
may return ENOSYS on Alpine.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/79299
Related to commits v9.1-109-g879d2180d and v9.7-248-g306de6c26

Better fix for problem reported by Jeremy Allison
<https://bugs.gnu.org/79267>.
* src/copy.c (struct scan_inference): New type, replacing
union scan_inference. All uses changed. This is so
infer_scantype can report the first hole's offset when known.
(lseek_copy): 5th arg is now struct scan_inference const *,
not just off_t. All uses changed.
(infer_scantype): If SEEK_SET+SEEK_HOLE do not find a hole,
fall back on ZERO_SCANTYPE.
This reverts part of the previous change.
* src/copy.c (lseek_copy): When calling sparse_copy, do not
ask it to scan for zeros unless --sparse=always, so that it
can use copy_file_range which can be far more efficient.
Problem reported by Jeremy Allison <https://bugs.gnu.org/79267>.
* src/copy.c (create_hole, sparse_copy): Omit arg PUNCH_HOLES,
as we always punch holes now. All uses changed.
(lseek_copy): When calling sparse_copy, scan for holes when
sparse_mode == SPARSE_AUTO, as that means we are making holes.
(copy_reg): Always punch any hole made at end.
* doc/sort-version.texi (Other version/natural sort implementations):
Use https in documentation link.
* tests/chmod/symlinks.sh: Use https in license text.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* doc/coreutils.texi (nproc invocation): Mention that
cgroup CPU quotas can limit the reported number.
* gnulib: Update to new nproc gnulib implementation:
https://github.com/coreutils/gnulib/commit/9b07115f4a
* src/tsort.c: Don't include long-options.h since the previous commit
removed the call to parse_gnu_standard_options_only. This avoids a
sc_prohibit_long_options_without_use syntax-check failure.
This is for conformance to POSIX.1-2024
* src/tsort.c: Include getopt.h.
(main): Accept and ignore -w. Do not bother altering
the usage message, as the option is useless.
* tests/misc/tsort.pl (cycle-3): New test.
* src/realpath.c (longopts): Add the option.
(main): Likewise.
(usage): Add the option to the --help message.
* tests/misc/realpath.sh: Add a simple test.
* doc/coreutils.texi (realpath invocation): Mention the new option.
* NEWS: Likewise.
* doc/coreutils.texi (basenc invocation): Add an example
using --base58 to generate a unique ID. This also demonstrates
compound usage of the basenc command, to convert to/from binary.
A 58 character encoding that:
- avoids visually ambiguous 0OIl characters
- uses only alphanumeric characters
Described at:
- https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-msporny-base58-03
This implementation uses GMP (or gnulib's gmp fallback).
Performance is good in comparison to other implementations.
For example when using libgmp on an i7-5600U system,
encoding is 530 times faster, and decoding 830 times faster
than the implementation using arbitrary precision ints in cpython 3.13.
Memory use is proportional to the size of input.
Encoding benchmarks:
$ time yes | head -c65535 | src/basenc --base58 -w0 >file.enc
real 0m0.018s
./configure --quiet --without-libgmp && make -j $(nproc)
$ time yes | head -c65535 | src/basenc --base58 -w0 >file.enc
real 0m3.431s
# dnf install python3-base58
$ time yes | head -c65535 | base58 >file.enc # cpython 3.13
real 0m9.700s
Decoding benchmarks:
$ time src/basenc --base58 -d <file.enc >/dev/null
real 0m0.010s
$ ./configure --without-libgmp && make # gnulib gmp
$ time src/basenc --base58 -d <file.enc >/dev/null
real 0m0.145s
$ time base58 -d <file.enc >/dev/null # cpython 3.13
real 0m8.302s
* src/basenc.c (base_decode_ctx_finalize, base_encode_ctx_init,
base_encode_ctx, base_encode_ctx_finalize): New functions to
provide more general processing functionality.
(base58_{de,en}code_ctx{_init,,_finalize}): New functions to
accumulate all input before calling ...
(base58_{de,en}code): ... the GMP based encoding/decoding routines.
(do_encode, do_decode): Call the ctx variants if enabled.
* doc/coreutils.texi (basenc invocation): Describe the new option,
and indicate the main use case being interactive user use.
* src/local.mk: Link basenc with GMP.
* tests/basenc/basenc.pl: Add test cases.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* src/basenc.c (do_decode): With -i ensure we strip '=' chars
if there is no padding for the chosen encoding.
* tests/basenc/basenc.pl: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.
* src/basenc.c (base16_encode, z85_encoding, do_decode): Use
ATTRIBUTE_NONSTRING instead of ATTRIBUTE_NONSTRING.
* src/basenc.c (sc_prohibit-_gl-attributes): New rule for
'make syntax-check'.
The sparse code sometimes issued multiple lseeks against the
same file without doing anything in betwee. Optimize them away
by keeping track of the last hole output, in a way that
crosses the sparse_copy function call boundary.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): New arg hole_size, replacing old args
scan_holes and last_write_made_hole. All callers changed.
(sparse_copy, lseek_copy): Do not create hole at
end; let the caller deal with it. All callers changed.
(lseek_copy): New args hole_size and total_n_read. Caller changed.
(copy_reg): Create hole at end for both lseek_copy and sparse_copy.
The sparse code assumed that st_blksize was the minimum hole size.
However, st_blksize is an optimum I/O buffer size, not the file
system fundamental block size. Use ST_NBLOCKSIZE instead;
although it may underestimate the true block size that just slows
‘cp’ down a bit, without introducing bugs.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Arg scan_holes replaces
the old hole_size arg. All callers changed.
(lseek_copy): Remove hole_size arg; no longer needed.
Caller changed.
* cfg.mk (sc_standard_outputs): Add a grep command for source files.
* src/du.c (main): Use standard input instead of stdin, standard output
instead of stdout, and standard error instead of stderr in messages.
* src/nohup.c (main): Likewise.
* src/sort.c (main): Likewise.
* src/split.c (main): Likewise.
* src/stdbuf.c (main): Likewise.
* src/wc.c (main): Likewise.
* tests/du/files0-from.pl (@Tests): Adjust test case to new messages.
* tests/sort/sort-files0-from.pl: Likewise.
* tests/wc/wc-files0-from.pl: Likewise.
'make syntax-check' complains:
src/tail.c
maint.mk: the above files include safe-read.h but don't use it
make: *** [maint.mk:737: sc_prohibit_safe_read_without_use] Error 1
The removal was missed for tail.c in recent commit d3c7072a09.
* src/tail.c (safe-read.h): Remove include.
This does not change behavior on POSIX platforms; it’s mostly to
make it clearer when we’re looking for file identity.
* src/cat.c (main):
* src/copy.c (struct dir_list, is_ancestor, copy_internal):
* src/tail.c (struct File_spec, record_open_fd, recheck)
(tail_forever_inotify, tail_file):
* src/test.c (binary_operator):
Use psame_inode, PSAME_INODE, or SAME_INODE instead of comparing
device and inode numbers by hand.
* src/tail.c (recheck, tail_file): Do not mark a file as tailable
merely because --retry is not in effect. Simplify internal logic.
This should not change behavior; it’s just for clarity and to
make the code match the comments better.
* src/tail.c (get_file_status): Remove, since after the changes
described below it would be called in just one place and it’s a
bit clearer to inline by hand.
(tail_file): Don’t call fstat after reading the file, as that
misses changes arriving between read and fstat. Instead, reuse
the fstat done before reading the file.
