coreutils/src, branch v9.4

maint: spelling fixes, including author names

2023-08-28T21:06:43Z

Most of this just affects commentary and documentations. The only significant behavior change is translating author names via proper_name_lite rather than proper_name_utf8, or not translating them at all. proper_name_lite is good enough for coreutils and avoids the bloat that had coreutils not using Gnulib proper_name. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use propername-lite instead of propername. (XGETTEXT_OPTIONS): Look for proper_name_lite instead of for proper_name_utf8. * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove sc_proper_name_utf8_requires_ICONV, since we no longer use proper_name_utf8. (old_NEWS_hash): Update. (sc_check-I18N-AUTHORS): Remove; no longer needed.

test: omit unreachable code

2023-08-28T21:06:43Z

* src/test.c (unary_operator): Omit unreachable ‘return false;’. Oracle Solaris Studio 12.6 warns about it.

all: avoid duplicated write errors on FreeBSD

2023-08-27T16:32:07Z

* src/system.h (write_error): Also call fpurge(), which was seen to be needed on FreeBSD 13.1 to avoid duplicated write errors. * src/head.c (xwrite_stdout): Likewise. * bootstrap.conf: Depend on fpurge. Reported by Bruno Haible.

build: fix link errors of sort, split on CentOS 5 and Solaris 10

2023-08-27T15:37:54Z

* src/local.mk (src_sort_LDADD, src_split_LDADD): Add $(CLOCK_TIME_LIB).

build: fix compilation error on AIX 7.1

2023-08-27T15:37:52Z

* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't test for ENOTEMPTY if it has the same value as EEXIST.

cp: with --sparse=never, avoid COW and copy offload

2023-08-21T13:28:14Z

* src/cp.c (main): Set default reflink mode appropriately with --sparse=never. * src/copy.c (infer_scantype): Add a comment to related code. * tests/cp/sparse-2.sh: Add a test case. * NEWS: Mention the bug.

uptime: simplify following gnulib changes

2023-08-15T22:22:27Z

* build-aux/gen-lists-of-programs.sh (build_if_possible_progs): Remove uptime. (normal_progs): Add uptime. * configure.ac: Remove GNULIB_BOOT_TIME invocation. * m4/boottime.m4: Remove file. * src/uptime.c: Don't include , . (print_uptime): Don't call sysctl, get_system_info, as Gnulib's readutmp module now does this.

uptime: be more generous about read_utmp failure

2023-08-15T21:01:58Z

* src/uptime.c (print_uptime): Check for overflow when computing uptime. Use C99-style decl after statements. Do not let an idx_t value go negative. (print_uptime, uptime): Be more generous about read_utmp failures, or when read_utmp does not report the boot time. Instead of failing, warn but keep going, printing the information that we did get, and then exit with nonzero status. (print_uptime): Return the desired exit status. Caller changed.

uptime: Include VM sleep time in the "up" duration

2023-08-15T21:01:58Z

* src/uptime.c: Don't include c-strtod.h. (print_uptime): Don't read /proc/uptime, because the value it provides does not change when a date adjustment occurs. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove 'uptime'.

build: fix recent compilation error on GNU/Hurd

2023-08-14T21:11:57Z

* src/copy.c (set_author): Revert change from MACH_PORT_NULL to MACH_PORT_nullptr from commit 16b5ca6e (2023-06-29).
