* tests: determine if SEEK_HOLE is enabledPádraig Brady2023-02-241-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcomming gnulib changes may disable SEEK_HOLE even if the system supports it, so dynamically check if we've SEEK_HOLE enabled. * init.cfg (seek_data_capable_): SEEK_DATA may be disabled in the build if the system support is deemed insufficient, so also use `cp --debug` to determine if it's enabled. * tests/cp/sparse-2.sh: Adjust to a more general diagnostic. * tests/cp/sparse-extents-2.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/sparse-extents.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: Likewise.

* tests: port better to macOS group numbersPaul Eggert2023-02-181-1/+13
| | | | | | * init.cfg (groups): Port better to macOS 12, where group 4294967295 (nogroup) is special: you can be a member without being able to chgrp files to the group.
* maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady2023-01-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Update to latest gnulib with new copyright year. Run "make update-copyright" and then... * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Manually update copyright year, until we fully sync with gnulib at a later stage. * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
* tests: make SIGPIPE trap checking more robustPádraig Brady2022-11-151-1/+4
| | | | | | * init.cfg (trap_sigpipe_or_skip_): A subshell with ignored SIGPIPE was seen to not terminate, on Solaris 11 at least. So protect with a timeout(1).
* maint: avoid new grep -q syntax-check failuresPádraig Brady2022-11-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | * cfg.mk: Exclude NEWS from the check. * init.cfg: s/grep -q/grep >/dev/null/. * tests/ls/hyperlink.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/symlink-quote.sh: Likewise.
* tests: stty.sh: skip on systems without perlPádraig Brady2022-04-101-0/+1
| | | | | * init.cfg (stty_reversible_init_): Add require_perl_ to ensure we skip rather than error, without perl.
* maint: update all copyright year number rangesPádraig Brady2022-01-021-1/+1

* tests: cp/sparse-perf: make more robust and add zfs commentsPádraig Brady2021-09-251-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | * init.cfg (seek_data_capable_): Add a timeout to ensure failure for slow lseek(...SEEK_DATA) calls (even if that syscall isn't interrupted). * tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: Run the SEEK_DATA check on the 1TiB empty file to exclude both FreeBSD 9.1 which takes 35s, and ZFS which requires a delay of about 5s between file creation and use of SEEK_DATA to correctly determine it's empty (return ENXIO). Also remove the stat size checks as they invalidate the test due to cp never writing data due to it being always zeros, and thus converted to holes in the output.
* doc: modernize usage of “disk” and “core”Paul Eggert2021-07-281-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | In documentation and comments, don’t assume that secondary storage devices are disk devices. Similarly, don’t assume that main memory uses magnetic cores, which became obsolete in the 1970s. * src/du.c (usage): * src/ls.c (usage): * src/shred.c (usage): Reword to avoid “disk” in usage messages.
* tests: ensure we test SEEK_DATA where usedPádraig Brady2021-05-121-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fiemap is no longer the default copy implementation, so check for SEEK_DATA support instead as that's preferred. This will ensure better test coverage on systems without fiemap. * init.cfg: Replace fiemap_capable_ with seek_data_capable_. This is best supported with python 3 so prefer that. * tests/seek-data-capable: A new test script checking for SEEK_DATA support on the passed file name, called from seek_data_capable_. * tests/fiemap-capable: Remove no longer used probing script. * tests/cp/fiemap-perf.sh: Renamed to tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh * tests/cp/fiemap-2.sh: Renamed to tests/cp/sparse-2.sh * tests/cp/fiemap-extents.sh: Renamed to tests/cp/sparse-extents.sh * tests/cp/sparse-fiemap.sh: Renamed to tests/cp/sparse-extents-2.sh * tests/cp/fiemap-FMR.sh: Renamed to tests/cp/copy-FMR.sh * tests/local.mk: Reference the renamed tests.

| | | | | | | | | | * init.cfg (require_bash_as_SHELL_): A new function to replace SHELL for the current test, with bash if available. This is useful on OpenIndiana 11 where /bin/sh was seen to have races in handling of SIGPIPE. * tests/misc/seq-epipe.sh: Use the new function to enforce bash. * tests/misc/env-signal-handler.sh: Likewise.

* maint: init.cfg: fix a minor test-related quoting bugJim Meyering2018-07-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | * init.cfg (require_membership_in_two_groups_): This fixes a bug introduced by me in v8.15-8-gdd0e4c562. Luckily, the consequence of low-probability triggering the bug was the mere added backslash in the diagnostic: "...but running id -G\ either...". It would be triggered in a test failure for one who is a member of only one or fewer groups.

* tty: handle misconfigured namespacesPaul Eggert2017-04-051-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some platforms, isatty succeeds but ttyname fails. POSIX does not seem to allow this, but there it is. Problem reported by Christian Brauner (Bug#26371). While we’re at it, check for errors more carefully and return a new exit status 4 if stdin is closed or a similar error occurs. * doc/coreutils.texi (tty invocation): Document new behavior. * init.cfg (stderr_fileno_): Don't assume have_input_tty is not in the environment. * src/tty.c (TTY_STDIN_ERROR): New constant. (main): Exit with nonzero status if there is a usage error, like other coreutils programs. Check for error in getting stdin type. * tests/misc/tty.sh: New file. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Add it.
* maint: modernize URLsPaul Eggert2017-01-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | A lot of this is converting http: to https:. Also, gmane went away, so remove URLs that no longer work and are not easy to figure out what they were. Some of this stuff is so old that it no longer matters anyway.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When running "make check" on a Linux system running SELinux with a non-MLS policy, tests/mkdir/restorecon.sh test fails with: chcon: invalid context: root:object_r:tmp_t:s0: Invalid argument Indeed in such a configuration, contexts cannot have ":s0" suffix. * init.cfg (get_selinux_type): Refactor this function to here from various tests. Update to work with a non-MLS policy. (mls_enabled_): A new function to detect if MLS is enabled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | * init.cfg (get_min_ulimit_v_): Increase the determined virtual memory limit for the command by a page size to avoid alignment issues causing false failures for subsequent runs. * tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Be defensive and match the cut invocations under test, more closely with the form used to determine the VM memory limit. This was noticed on i686 linux at: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/28990456

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | programs may not be built due to missing system dependencies, or any program can be excluded at configure time with --enable-no-install-program.

* tests: cleanup trapping of signal namesPádraig Brady2015-11-101-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A side effect of this cleanup is we no longer depend on our own kill command being built. * init.cfg (require_trap_signame_): A new function to verify that the shell supports specifying traps by signal name.

* maint: use adaptive approach for `ulimit -v` based testsBernhard Voelker2015-09-221-17/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When configured with either 'symlinks' or 'shebangs' as value for the --enable-single-binary option, tests based on `ulimit -v` are skipped. The reason is that the multicall 'coreutils' binary requires much more memory due to shared libraries being loaded, and the size of the 'date' binary (~290KiB) compared to the multicall binary (~5MiB), of course. Finally, in the case of 'shebangs', the starting shell requires more memory, too Instead of using hard-coded values for the memory limit, use an adaptive approach: first determine the amount of memory for a similar, yet more trivial invocation of the command, and then do the real test run using that limit (plus some buffer in some cases). * init.cfg (require_ulimit_v_): Remove function. (get_min_ulimit_v_): Add function to determine the minimum memory limit required for a given command in an adaptive way. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_ulimit_without_require_): Change the name of the above function in the syntax-check rule. * tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Use the above function to determine the minimum memory required to run a command simpler than in the real test run. Use that limit plus a buffer there. While at it, change to list of commands in the subshell to fail also if the beginning `ulimit -v` fails. * tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/csplit-heap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/head-c.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/line-bytes.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM.sh: Likewise - doing it separately for each program under test.

* tests: fix false failure for test referencing libdlNick Alcock2014-10-021-1/+1
| | | | | | * init.cfg (gcc_shared_): -ldl has to be positioned after the object files that may rely upon it. This fixes tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh which references dlsym() from libdl.
* chroot: perform chdir("/") again unless new --skip-chdir is specifiedBernhard Voelker2014-08-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit v8.22-94-g99960ee, chroot(1) skips the chroot(2) syscall for "/" arguments (and synonyms). The problem is that it also skips the following chdir("/") call in that case. The latter breaks existing scripts which expect "/" to be the working directory inside the chroot. While the first part of the change - i.e., skipping chroot("/") - is okay for consistency with systems where it might succeed for a non-root user, the second part might be malicious, e.g. cd /home/user && chroot '/' bin/foo In the "best" case, chroot(1) could not execute 'bin/foo' with ENOENT, but in the worst case, chroot(1) would execute '/home/user/bin/foo' in the case that exists - instead of '/bin/foo'. Revert that second part of the patch, i.e., perform the chdir("/) in the common case again - unless the new --skip-chdir option is specified. Restrict this new option to the case of "/" arguments. * src/chroot.c (SKIP_CHDIR): Add enum. (long_opts): Add entry for the new --skip-chdir option. (usage): Add --skip-chdir option, and while at it, move the other to options into alphabetical order. (main): Accept the above new option, allowing it only in the case when NEWROOT is the old "/". Move down the chdir() call after the if-clause to ensure it is run in any case - unless --skip-chdir is specified. Add a 'newroot' variable for the new root directory as it is used in a couple of places now. * tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Invert the last tests which check the working directory of the execvp()ed program when a "/"-like argument was passed: now expect it to be "/" - unless --skip-chdir is given. * doc/coreutils.texi (chroot invocation): Document the new option. Document that chroot(1) usually calls chdir("/") unless the new --skip-chdir option is specified. Sort options. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the fix. (New features): Mention the new option. * init.cfg (nonroot_has_perm_): Add chroot's new --skip-chdir option. * tests/cp/preserve-gid.sh (t1): Likewise. * tests/cp/special-bits.sh: Likewise. * tests/id/setgid.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. * tests/mv/sticky-to-xpart.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/fail-2eperm.sh: Likewise. * tests/rm/no-give-up.sh: Likewise. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * HACKING: GID is more useful in tests than group name, so rename input param from NON_ROOT_GROUP to NON_ROOT_GID to make it obvious that only a group ID is now acceptable, thus allowing GID lookups to be avoided throughout the tests. * init.cfg (require_root_): Likewise. * tests/misc/truncate-owned-by-other.sh: Avoid looking up the GID. * tests/touch/now-owned-by-other.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/chroot-credentials.sh: Likewise.

* tests: fix false failure with disabled SELinux supportPádraig Brady2013-12-051-18/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | This could trigger on SELinux systems where we build --qithout-selinux or where the SELinux development libraries are not installed. * init.cfg (require_selinux_enforcing_): Call require_selinux_() to determine if the current build supports SELinux. This avoids a false failure in tests/mkdir/selinux.sh where only mkdir would determine that SELinux was disabled and thus ignore invalid contexts. (require_selinux_): Refactor a little to distinguish whether it's the build or the (file) system that doesn't support SELinux.

Other uses of ulimit -t and ulimit -n in tests shouldn't cause false failures if not supported. * cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_ulimit_without_require_): A new syntax check to ensure that require_ulimit_v_() is used iff required. * tests/misc/head-c.sh: Add missing call to require_ulimit_v_. * tests/rm/many-dir-entries-vs-OOM.sh: Likewise. * tests/split/r-chunk.sh: Remove non mandatory require_ulimit_ call. * tests/misc/sort-merge-fdlimit.sh: Likewise. * tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Adjust to renamed require_ulimit_v_. * tests/dd/no-allocate.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/csplit-heap.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/cut-huge-to-eol-range.sh: Likewise. * tests/misc/printf-surprise.sh: Likewise.
* tail: let -f --retry wait for inaccessible filesBernhard Voelker2013-04-201-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The --retry option is indeed useful for both following modes by name and by file descriptor. The difference is that in the latter case, it is effective only during the initial open. As a regression of the implementation of the inotify support, tail -f --retry would immediately exit if the given file is inaccessible. * src/tail.c (usage): Change the description of the --retry option: remove the note that this option would mainly be useful when following by name. (main): Change diagnosing dubios uses of --retry option: when the --retry option is used without following, then issue a warning that this option is ignored; when it is used together with --follow=descriptor, then issue a warning that it is only effective for the initial open. Disable inotify also in the case when the initial open in tail_file() failed (which is the actual bug fix). * init.cfg (retry_delay_): Pass excess arguments to the test function. * tests/tail-2/retry.sh: Add new tests. * tests/local.mk (all_tests): Mention it. * doc/coreutils.texi (tail invocation): Enhance the documentation of the --retry option. Clarify the difference in tail's behavior regarding the --retry option when combined with the following modes name versus descriptor. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention the fix.

* tests: avoid false failures with non default groupsPádraig Brady2013-04-141-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On OS X it was seen that the group ID used for new files, are set to a that of the directory rather than the current user. It's not currently understood when this happens, but it was confirmed that ACLs, extended attributes and setgid bits are _not_ involved. * init.cfg (skip_if_nondefault_group_): A new function to detect and avoid this situation. Document with links to the discussions for hopefully future clarification. * tests/install/install-C-root.sh: Use the new function. * tests/install/install-C-selinux.sh: Likewise. * tests/install/install-C.sh: Likewise.
* tests: avoid shared lib tests on unsupported platformsPádraig Brady2013-04-041-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | * init.cfg (require_gcc_shared_): A new function to check that we can build shared libraries in the particular manner we use in our tests. * tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh: Use require_gcc_shared_. Then fail rather than skip, if the actual shared lib build fails. * tests/df/no-mtab-status.sh: Likewise. * tests/df/skip-duplicates.sh: Likewise. * tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh: Likewise.
