split: fix a case where --elide-empty causes invalid chunking

2010-12-08T23:36:17Z

When -n l/N is used and long lines are present that both span partitions and multiple buffers, one would get inconsistent chunk sizes. * src/split.c (main): Add a new undocumented ---io-blksize option to support full testing with varied buffer sizes. (cwrite): Refactor most handling of --elide-empty to here. (bytes_split): Remove handling of --elide-empty. (lines_chunk_split): Likewise. The specific issue here was the first handling of elide_empty_files interfered with the replenishing of the input buffer. * test/misc/split-lchunk: Add -e and the new ---io-blksize combinations to the test.

split: add --number to generate a particular number of files

2010-11-22T01:45:15Z

* src/split.c (usage, long_options, main): New options --number, --unbuffered, --elide-empty-files. (set_suffix_length): New function to auto increase suffix length to handle a specified number of files. (create): New function. Refactored from cwrite() and ofile_open(). (bytes_split): Add max_files argument to support byte chunking. (lines_chunk_split): New function. Split file into chunks of lines. (bytes_chunk_extract): New function. Extract a chunk of file. (of_info): New struct. Used by functions lines_rr and ofile_open to keep track of file descriptors associated with output files. (ofile_open): New function. Shuffle file descriptors when there are more output files than available file descriptors. (lines_rr): New function to distribute lines round-robin to files. (chunk_parse): New function. Parses K/N syntax. * tests/misc/split-bchunk: New test for byte chunking. * tests/misc/split-lchunk: New test for line delimited chunking. * tests/misc/split-rchunk: New test for round-robin chunking. * tests/Makefile.am: Reference new tests. * tests/misc/split-fail: Add failure scenarios for new options. * tests/misc/split-l: Fix a typo. s/ln/split/. * doc/coreutils.texi (split invocation): Document --number. * NEWS: Mention the new feature. * .mailmap: Map new email address for shortlog.

split: fail immediately if impossible to create a large file

2010-11-16T00:50:09Z

* src/split.c (main): Error if -[bC] value > OFF_T_MAX * tests/misc/split-fail: Adjust for the new lower limits

split: fix reporting of read errors

2010-10-07T19:08:16Z

The bug was introduced with commit 23f6d41f, 19-02-2003. * src/split.c (bytes_split, lines_split, line_bytes_split): Correctly check the return from full_read(). * tests/misc/split-fail: Ensure split fails when it can't read its input. * NEWS: Mention the fix.

maint: replace each "for (;;)" with "while (true)"

Run this command: git ls-files | grep '\.[ch]$' \ | xargs perl -pi -e 's/for $;;$/while (true)/g' ...except for randint.c, which does not include stdbool.h. In that case, use "while (1)". * gl/lib/randint.c (randint_genmax): Use "while (1)" for infloops. * src/cat.c (simple_cat, cat): Use "while (true)" for infloops. * gl/lib/randread.c (readsource, readisaac): Likewise. * src/copy.c (copy_reg): Likewise. * src/csplit.c (record_line_starts, process_regexp): Likewise. * src/cut.c (set_fields): Likewise. * src/dd.c (iread, parse_symbols): Likewise. * src/df.c (find_mount_point, main): Likewise. * src/du.c (main): Likewise. * src/expand.c (expand): Likewise. * src/factor.c (factor_using_division, do_stdin): Likewise. * src/fmt.c (get_space): Likewise. * src/ls.c (decode_switches): Likewise. * src/od.c (main): Likewise. * src/pr.c (main, read_line): Likewise. * src/shred.c (dopass, genpattern): Likewise. * src/sort.c (initbuf, fillbuf, getmonth, keycompare): Likewise. * src/split.c (bytes_split, lines_split): Likewise. * src/tac.c (tac_seekable): Likewise. * src/test.c (and, or): Likewise. * src/tr.c (squeeze_filter, main): Likewise. * src/tsort.c (search_item): Likewise. * src/unexpand.c (unexpand): Likewise. * src/uniq.c (main): Likewise. * src/yes.c (main): Likewise.

maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010

2010-01-01T13:06:47Z

Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright

doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --help

2009-09-21T11:37:57Z

* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez

doc: improve various BLOCKSIZE and SIZE help

2009-09-10T14:28:50Z

* doc/coreutils.texi (multiplierSuffixes): Mention that the suffix can be specified without a leading number * src/split.c (usage): Refactor SIZE help to within a function * src/truncate.c (usage): Likewise * src/ls.c (usage): Likewise * src/df.c (usage): Likewise. Also add a function with BLOCKSIZE help * src/du.c (usage): Likewise. * src/system.h: Define 2 functions to emit common help text This was prompted by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=511188
