* tests/tail/inotify-dir-recreate.sh: Add an extra check
that inotify is in use, as it's required for this test.
Inotify is avoided with overlayfs for which the
df --local check is not sufficient exclusion for.
tests: tail/overlay-headers.sh: protect against hang2025-09-18T18:04:57ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2025-09-18T18:04:57Zurn:sha1:4ca51b101358f7dbd6b38564cfd6eee9937b2b2f
* tests/tail/overlay-headers.sh: Protect tail invocation with timeout,
and extend the possible running period to 60 seconds like other tests.

* tests/tail/wait.sh: This test was seen to hang occasionally
on an Alpine Linux 3.20 system, so protect the tail(1) call
with `timeout 60` as done in similar tests.

tail: refactor to skip stat call on failure2025-08-04T02:48:05ZPaul Eggerteggert@cs.ucla.edu2025-07-29T15:24:58Zurn:sha1:09fc945b374d256869615591171d744462e20c6e
* src/tail.c (tail_bytes): New function.
(tail_bytes, tail_lines, tail): Accept struct stat pointer from
caller instead of calling fstat ourselves. All callers changed.
(tail_file): Skip a call to fstat if fstat already failed.
* tests/tail/follow-stdin.sh: Adjust to match new behavior
on failure, which omits a redundant diagnostic.
tail: allow >=2**64 in traditional form2025-08-04T02:48:04ZPaul Eggerteggert@cs.ucla.edu2025-07-28T18:24:38Zurn:sha1:6439858056d9bc9dd7411df583e60854ace41d17
This better matches the treatment of POSIX form,
e.g., ‘tail +Nc’ is now like ‘tail -c +N’ even when N is large.
* src/tail.c: Don’t include xstrtol.h.
(parse_obsolete_option): Treat numbers greater than UINTMAX_MAX as
if they are UINTMAX_MAX. Parse the number by hand with saturating
arithmetic; nowadays that’s simpler than using xstrtoumax. There
is no need for a diagnostic now, as the error cannot happen any more.
* tests/tail/tail.pl (obs-plus-c3): New test.

tests/tail/tail-c.sh: Exclude older kernels from timeout failure.
tests: tail: avoid failure on Solaris 112025-01-15T12:07:52ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2025-01-14T21:14:50Zurn:sha1:1555bcec6aae06df01a52d3656e8ca35e7dea938
* tests/tail/tail-c.sh: On Solaris 11, tail -c 4096 /dev/urandom,
will induce an lseek(,-4096,SEEK_END) which returns -4096 without
setting errno, and a subsequent read() then gives EINVAL.
Since tailing the end of a psuedo device is an edge case,
we just verify that we don't spin reading the device forever.
tail: honor --pid with fifos2025-01-08T12:11:43ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2024-10-18T12:40:13Zurn:sha1:177fcec66d50b7e7ee351aad417a0bd9e0eb4673
* src/tail.c (tail_file): Open files with O_NONBLOCK
if we might need async processing.
(pipe_bytes): Ignore EAGAIN read() errors.
(pipe_lines): Likewise.
* tests/tail/pid-pipe.sh: Add a new test.
* tests/local.mk: Reference the new test.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.

Update to latest gnulib with new copyright year.
Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* gnulib: Update included in this commit as copyright years
are the only change from the previous gnulib commit.
* tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year.
* bootstrap: Likewise.
* tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
