maint: use "char const " rather than "const char "

2021-04-11T17:33:45Z

* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit-const-char): Add a new syntax-check to enforce this style. * *.[ch]: sed -i 's/const char \*/char const */g'

expr: fix bug with unmatched \(...\)

2021-01-26T17:24:41Z

Problem reported by Qiuhao Li. * NEWS: Mention this. * doc/coreutils.texi (String expressions): Document the correct behavior, which POSIX requires. * src/expr.c (docolon): Treat unmatched \(...\) as empty. * tests/misc/expr.pl: New test.

maint: update all copyright year number ranges

2021-01-01T16:36:09Z

Run "make update-copyright" and then... * gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted. * tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year. * bootstrap: Likewise. * tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.

maint: fix typo, characteres -> characters

2020-11-27T19:56:02Z

* src/expr.c: Fix typo in comment.

maint: use Gnulib libgmp module

2020-07-07T21:48:21Z

This lets use assume multiple-precision arithmetic on all platforms, simplifying the code. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add libgmp. * configure.ac: Don’t call cu_GMP, as this is now done by Gnulib. * m4/gmp.m4: Remove. * src/expr.c, src/factor.c: Use gmp.h unconditionally. * src/factor.c: Use the simpler ‘#ifndef mpz_inits’ to determine whether there is an mpz_inits macro.

all: improve parsing of numeric arguments

2019-10-22T22:04:43Z

This addresses a longstanding "update all callers" FIXME in lib/xstrtol.c, by having programs check that numbers do not have unknown suffixes. The problem was also reported for 'shuf' by my student Maggie Huang while reimplementing a shuf subset in Python as an exercise in UCLA Computer Science 35L: https://web.cs.ucla.edu/classes/fall19/cs35L/assign/assign3.html This patch also improves the portability of the code to unusual platforms where ULONG_MAX < SIZE_MAX. * NEWS: Mention user-visible changes. * src/chgrp.c (parse_group): * src/chroot.c (parse_additional_groups): * src/du.c (main): * src/install.c (get_ids): * src/join.c (string_to_join_field): * src/ls.c (decode_switches): * src/md5sum.c (split_3): * src/shuf.c (main): * src/sort.c (specify_nthreads): * src/uniq.c (size_opt, main): Use uintmax_t instead of unsigned long, for portability to oddball platforms where unsigned long is not wide enough. * src/du.c (main): * src/expr.c (mpz_init_set_str) [!HAVE_GMP]: * src/install.c (get_ids): * src/ls.c (decode_switches): * src/mknod.c (main): * src/ptx.c (main): * src/shuf.c (main): * src/sort.c (specify_nmerge, specify_nthreads): Reject numbers with suffixes. * src/md5sum.c (split_3): Simplify.

maint: fix -Werror=suggest-attribute=malloc in expr.c

2018-06-25T04:23:05Z

Add attribute 'malloc' to mpz_get_str to prevent the following on GCC 8.1.1 src/expr.c:117:1: error: function might be candidate for attribute 'malloc' if it is known to return normally [-Werror=suggest-attribute=malloc] mpz_get_str (char const *str, int base, mpz_t z) ^~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors * src/expr.c (mpz_get_str): Add _GL_ATTRIBUTE_MALLOC.
