coreutils/tests/sort, branch v6.8

Remove usually-skipped test.

2007-01-24T09:36:02Z

* tests/cp/open-perm-race: Remove this file. It is subsumed by parent-perm-race. * tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS): Remove open-perm-race. * tests/sort/Makefile.am: Regenerate.

* NEWS: New option sort -C, proposed by XCU ERN 127, which looks

2007-01-24T08:06:57Z

like it will be approved. Also add --check=quiet, --check=silent as long aliases, and --check=diagnose-first as an alias for -c. * doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Document this. Also, mention that sort -c can take at most one file. * src/sort.c: Implement this. Include argmatch.h. (usage): Document the change. (CHECK_OPTION): New constant. (long_options): --check now takes an optional argument, and is now treated differently from 'c'. (check_args, check_types): New constant arrays. (check): New arg CHECKONLY, which suppresses diagnostic if -C. (main): Parse the new options. * tests/sort/Test.pm (02d, 02d, incompat5, incompat6): New tests for -C.

Put CU_TEST_NAME in the environment for each test run by "make check".

* Transform all Makefile.am files so that when running "make check", CU_TEST_NAME is set to the name of the test. This is so that when I run valgrind-enabled (--log-file-qualifier=CU_TEST_NAME) "make check" on the entire package it is more convenient to map a leak or error found in a valgrind log file back to the offending test. Use this command: (echo tests/Makefile.am.in; find tests -name Makefile.am) \ |xargs perl -pi -e '/^(\s*)PATH=...VG_PATH_PREFIX/ and ' \ -e 'print $1,q|CU_TEST_NAME=`basename $(abs_srcdir)`,$$tst |,"\\\n"'

Remove some arbitrary restrictions on size fields,

2006-12-13T21:03:54Z

so that commands like "sort -k 18446744073709551616" no longer fail merely because 18446744073709551616 doesn't fit in uintmax_t. The trick is that these fields can all be treated as effectively infinity; their exact values don't matter, since no internal buffer can be that long. * src/join.c (string_to_join_field): Verify that SIZE_MAX <= ULONG_MAX if the code assumes this. Silently truncate too-large values to SIZE_MAX, as the remaining code will do the right thing in this case. * src/sort.c (parse_field_count): Likewise. * src/uniq.c (size_opt, main): Likewise. * tests/join/Test.pm (bigfield): New test. * tests/sort/Test.pm (bigfield): New test. * tests/uniq/Test.pm (121): New test.

* aclocal.m4, config.hin, configure:

2006-08-22T18:50:24Z

Remove from CVS, since ./bootstrap generates them automatically. * .cvsignore: Add INSTALL, Makefile.in, *.cache, *.lineno, *.log. Remove more-specific entries. This catches files like configure.lineno. * man/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in. * src/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in. Remove .version, dir.c, install, mvdir, stamp-v, vdir.c, version.c. For .cvsignore file under the tests directory: Add Makefile.in. Sort entries if necessary. Remove *.I, *.E, *.X, *.O, *-tests, build-script, mk-script if they're never created in this directory. * build-aux/.cvsignore: New file. * doc/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in, coreutils.html, coreutils.pdf, coreutils.ps, coreutils.tps. Remove coreutils.cm (dunno what it is, but the makefile doesn't mention it). Remove coreutils.info as it is subsumed by coreutils.info*. * lib/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.in, getdate.tab.h. Remove stat.c, sysexit.h. * m4/.cvsignore: Remove Makefile, dev-ino.m4, glibc2.m4, intdiv0.m4, inttypes-h.m4, inttypes-pri.m4, jm-glibc-io.m4, lcmessage.m4, lock.m4, printf-posix.m4, same-inode.m4, size_max.m4, uintmax_t.m4, ulonglong.m4, visibility.m4, xsize.m4. Many of these are put in automatically by ../bootstrap, but that's a bootstrap bug that I plan to fix shortly. * po/.cvsignore: More ../bootstrap-related fixes, plus remove old cruft. Add *.po, LINGUAS, Makevars. Remove *.cat, *.msg, cat-id-dbl.c, messages.mo, stamp-cat-id.

Remove from CVS, since the bootstrap script generates them automatically.

Some of my 2006-07-03 changes to tests/*/Makefile.am were being

2006-08-19T16:02:11Z

backed out due to updates provoked by the copyright changes. * tests/Makefile.am.in (PATH): Prepend $(VG_PATH_PREFIX), so that it propagates to the derived Makefile.am files. ($(srcdir)/Makefile.am): Mark generated .am files as read-only, so we don't mistakenly edit them again. * tests/cut/Makefile.am: Regenerate. * tests/head/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/join/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/pr/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/sort/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/tac/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/tail/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/test/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/tr/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/uniq/Makefile.am: Likewise. * tests/wc/Makefile.am: Likewise.

Add/fix copyright notices and adjust to latest GNU FDL.
