<title>doc,maint: fix use of "i.e." in documentation and comments</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a5c8cdff03182ceafae39ccde6a07ebd8660b087</id>
<content type='text'>
To align with all other places (and correct grammar), change all
upper-case "I.E." to "I.e.".  Furthermore, ensure that "i.e." is
followed by a comma.  Finally, ensure to use a double-space before
"I.e.," at the beginning of a sentence.

The following was used to change all offending uses (apart from
old ChangeLog files):

  $ git grep -liF 'i.e.' \
      | xargs sed -i \
            -e 's/I\.E\./I.e./g' \
            -e 's/\. \(I\.e\.\)/.  \1/g' \
            -e 's/\([Ii]\.e\.\)\( \)/\1,\2/g' \
            -e 's/\([Ii]\.e\.\)$/\1,/g'

* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_uppercase_id_est): Add new rule.
(sc_ensure_double_space_after_dot_before_id_est): Likewise.
(sc_ensure_comma_after_id_est): Likewise.
(old_NEWS_hash): Refresh hash via "make update-NEWS-hash".

<title>selinux: adjust utils to run restorecon with -Z</title>

cp, mv, install, mkdir, mkfifo, mknod are adjusted so that:
 -Z no longer accepts an argument.
 -Z or --context without an argument do not warn without SELinux.
 --context with an argument will warn without SELinux.

* src/local.mk: Reference the new selinux module where required.
* src/system.h: Make the argument to --context optional.
* src/mkdir.c: Likewise.  Also handle the SMACK case for --context.
Note we currently silently ignore -Z with SMACK.
* src/mkfifo.c: Likewise.
* src/mknod.c: Likewise.
* src/install.c: Likewise.  Note install(1) by default already
set the context for target files to their system default,
albeit with an older method.  Use the -Z option to select between
the old and new context restoration behavior, and document
the differences and details for how context restoration
is done in new and old methods, with a view disabling the
old method entirely in future.
* src/cp.c: Make the argument to --context optional.
Note -Z implies --no-preserve=context.  I.E. -Z overrides
that aspect of -a no matter what order specified.
(struct cp_options): Document the context handling options.
(main): Check/adjust option combinations after all
options are processed, to both simplify processing
and to make handling independent of order of options
on the command line.  Also improve the diagnostics
from a failed call to setfscreatecon().
(set_process_security_ctx): A new function,
refactored to set the default context from the source file,
or with the type adjusted as per the system default for
the destination path.
(set_file_security_ctx): A new function refactored to
set the security context of an existing file, either based on
the process context or the default system context for a path.
(copy_internal): Use the refactored functions to simplify
error handling and consistently fail or warn as needed.
(copy_reg): Likewise.
(copy_internal): With --preserve=context, also copy
context from non regular files.  Note for directories this may
impact the copying of subsequent files to that directory?
(copy_attr): If we're handling SELinux explicitly,
then exclude to avoid the redudant copy with --preserve=context,
and the problematic copy with -Z.  Note SELinux attribute exclusion
also now honors cp -a --no-preserve=context.  Note there was a
very small window over 10 years ago, where attr_copy_file was
available, while attr_copy_check_permissions was not, so we
don't bother adding an explicit m4 check for the latter function.
* src/mv.c: Support --context, but don't allow specifying an argument.
* src/chcon.c: Adjust a comment to be specific to SELinux.
* src/runcon.c: Likewise.
* src/copy.c: Honor the context settings to "restorecon" as appropriate.
* src/copy.h: Add a new setting to select "restorecon" functionality.
* tests/mkdir/selinux.sh: s/-Z/--context=/
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Augment this test with cases
testing basic -Z functionality, and also test the various
invalid option combinations and option precedence.
* tests/mkdir/restorecon.sh: Add a new test for the
more involved mkdir -Z handling, since the directory changing
and non existent directories need to be specially handled.
Also check the similar but simpler handling of -Z by mk{nod,fifo}.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* doc/coreutils.texi (cp invocation): Update as per interface changes.
(mv invocation): Likewise.
(install invocation): Likewise.
(mkfifo invocation): Likewise.
(mknod invocation): Likewise.
(mkdir invocation): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature and change in behavior.

The --no-preserve=mode option did not do what its name implies:
it would mistakenly preserve permission mode bits.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.
* TODO: Remove an entry.
* src/copy.c (copy_reg): Add a condition to properly
handle the --no-preserve=mode option for files
(copy_internal): Add a condition to properly handle the
--no-preserve=mode option for directories.
* src/copy.h (struct cp_options): Add a new boolean.
* src/cp.c (cp_option_init,decode_preserve_arg): Set the
new boolean value according to specified options.
* src/install.c (struct cp_options): Initialize the new boolean.
* src/mv.c (struct cp_options): Initialize the new boolean.
* tests/cp/preserve-mode.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/cp/link-preserve.sh (-a --no-preserve=mode): Adjust the
expected perms: now, --no-preserve=mode overrides the --preserve=mode
that is inherent in -a, as it should.
* tests/local.mk: Add the new test to the list.
