** Bug fixes
|
||||
|
||||
chmod -Rc no longer issues erroneous warnings for files with special bits set.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.0]
|
||||
|
||||
cp -a, mv, and install --preserve-context, once again set the correct SELinux
|
||||
context for existing directories in the destination. Previously they set
|
||||
the context of an existing directory to that of its last copied descendent.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.22]
|
||||
|
||||
cp -a, mv, and install --preserve-context, no longer seg fault when running
|
||||
with SELinux enabled, when copying from file systems that return an error
|
||||
when reading the SELinux context for a file.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.22]
|
||||
|
||||
cp -a and mv now preserve xattrs of symlinks copied across file systems.
|
||||
[bug introduced with extended attribute preservation feature in coreutils-7.1]
|
||||
|
||||
date could crash or go into an infinite loop when parsing a malformed TZ="".
|
||||
[bug introduced with the --date='TZ="" ..' parsing feature in coreutils-5.3.0]
|
||||
|
||||
dd's ASCII and EBCDIC conversions were incompatible with common practice and
|
||||
with POSIX, and have been corrected as follows. First, conv=ascii now
|
||||
implies conv=unblock, and conv=ebcdic and conv=ibm now imply conv=block.
|
||||
Second, the translation tables for dd conv=ascii and conv=ebcdic have been
|
||||
corrected as shown in the following table, where A is the ASCII value, W is
|
||||
the old, wrong EBCDIC value, and E is the new, corrected EBCDIC value; all
|
||||
values are in octal.
|
||||
|
||||
A W E

|
||||
|
||||
[These dd bugs were present in "the beginning".]
|
||||
|
||||
df has more fixes related to the newer dynamic representation of file systems:
|
||||
Duplicates are elided for virtual file systems like tmpfs.
|
||||
Details for the correct device are output for points mounted multiple times.
|
||||
Placeholder values are output for inaccessible file systems, rather than
|
||||
than error messages or values for the wrong file system.
|
||||
[These bugs were present in "the beginning".]
|
||||
|
||||
df now outputs all appropriate entries in the presence of bind mounts.
|
||||
On some systems, entries would have been incorrectly elided due to
|
||||
them being considered "dummy" mounts.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.22]
|
||||
|
||||
du now silently ignores directory cycles introduced with bind mounts.
|
||||
Previously it would issue a warning and exit with a failure status.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.1]
|
||||
|
||||
head --bytes=-N and --lines=-N now handles devices more
|
||||
consistently, not ignoring data from virtual devices like /dev/zero,
|
||||
or on BSD systems data from tty devices.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.0.1]
|
||||
|
||||
head --bytes=-N - no longer fails with a bogus diagnostic when stdin's
|
||||
seek pointer is not at the beginning.
|
||||
[bug introduced with the --bytes=-N feature in coreutils-5.0.1]
|
||||
|
||||
head --lines=-0, when the input does not contain a trailing '\n',
|
||||
now copies all input to stdout. Previously nothing was output in this case.
|
||||
[bug introduced with the --lines=-N feature in coreutils-5.0.1]
|
||||
|
||||
id, when invoked with no user name argument, now prints the correct group ID.
|
||||
Previously, in the default output format, it would print the default group ID
|
||||
in the password database, which may be neither real nor effective. For e.g.,
|
||||
when run set-GID, or when the database changes outside the current session.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.1]
|
||||
|
||||
ln -sf now replaces symbolic links whose targets can't exist. Previously
|
||||
it would display an error, requiring --no-dereference to avoid the issue.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.3.0]
|
||||
|
||||
ln -sr '' F no longer segfaults. Now works as expected.
|
||||
[bug introduced with the --relative feature in coreutils-8.16]
|
||||
|
||||
numfmt now handles blanks correctly in all unibyte locales. Previously
|
||||
in locales where character 0xA0 is a blank, numfmt would mishandle it.
|
||||
[bug introduced when numfmt was added in coreutils-8.21]
|
||||
|
||||
ptx --format long option parsing no longer falls through into the --help case.
|
||||
[bug introduced in TEXTUTILS-1_22i]
|
||||
|
||||
ptx now consistently trims whitespace when processing multiple files.
|
||||
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
|
||||
|
||||
seq again generates correct output with start or end values = -0.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.20.]
|
||||
|
||||
shuf --repeat no longer dumps core if the input is empty.
|
||||
[bug introduced with the --repeat feature in coreutils-8.22]
|
||||
|
||||
sort when using multiple threads now avoids undefined behavior with mutex
|
||||
destruction, which could cause deadlocks on some implementations.
|
||||
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.6]
|
||||
|
||||
tail -f now uses polling mode for VXFS to cater for its clustered mode.
|
||||
[bug introduced with inotify support added in coreutils-7.5]
|
||||
|
||||
** New features
|
||||
|
||||
od accepts a new option: --endian=TYPE to handle inputs with different byte
|
||||
orders, or to provide consistent output on systems with disparate endianness.
|
||||
|
||||
configure accepts the new option --enable-single-binary to build all the
|
||||
selected programs in a single binary called "coreutils". The selected
|
||||
programs can still be called directly using symlinks to "coreutils" or
|
||||
shebangs with the option --coreutils-prog= passed to this program. The
|
||||
install behavior is determined by the option --enable-single-binary=symlinks
|
||||
or --enable-single-binary=shebangs (the default). With the symlinks option,
|
||||
you can't make a second symlink to any program because that will change the
|
||||
name of the called program, which is used by coreutils to determine the
|
||||
desired program. The shebangs option doesn't suffer from this problem, but
|
||||
the /proc/$pid/cmdline file might not be updated on all the platforms. The
|
||||
functionality of each program is not affected but this single binary will
|
||||
depend on all the required dynamic libraries even to run simple programs.
|
||||
If you desire to build some tools outside the single binary file, you can
|
||||
pass the option --enable-single-binary-exceptions=PROG_LIST with the comma
|
||||
separated list of programs you want to build separately. This flag
|
||||
considerably reduces the overall size of the installed binaries which makes
|
||||
it suitable for embedded system.
|
||||
|
||||
** Changes in behavior
|
||||
|
||||
chroot with an argument of "/" no longer implicitly changes the current
|
||||
directory to "/", allowing changing only user credentials for a command.
|
||||
|
||||
chroot --userspec will now unset supplemental groups associated with root,
|
||||
and instead use the supplemental groups of the specified user.
|
||||
|
||||
cut -d$'\n' again outputs lines identified in the --fields list, having
|
||||
not done so in v8.21 and v8.22. Note using this non portable functionality
|
||||
will result in the delayed output of lines.
|
||||
|
||||
ls with none of LS_COLORS or COLORTERM environment variables set,
|
||||
will now honor an empty or unknown TERM environment variable,
|
||||
and not output colors even with --colors=always.
|
||||
|
||||
** Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
chroot has better --userspec and --group look-ups, with numeric IDs never
|
||||
causing name look-up errors. Also look-ups are first done outside the chroot,
|
||||
in case the look-up within the chroot fails due to library conflicts etc.
|
||||
|
||||
install now allows the combination of the -D and -t options.
|
||||
|
||||
numfmt supports zero padding of numbers using the standard printf
|
||||
syntax of a leading zero, for example --format="%010f".
|
||||
Also throughput was improved by up to 800% by avoiding redundant processing.
|
||||
|
||||
shred now supports multiple passes on GNU/Linux tape devices by rewinding
|
||||
the tape before each pass, avoids redundant writes to empty files,
|
||||
uses direct I/O for all passes where possible, and attempts to clear
|
||||
inode storage used for small files on some file systems.
|
||||
|
||||
split avoids unnecessary input buffering, immediately writing input to output
|
||||
which is significant with --filter or when writing to fifos or stdout etc.
|
||||
|
||||
stat and tail work better with HFS+, HFSX, LogFS and ConfigFS. stat -f
|
||||
--format=%T now reports the file system type, and tail -f now uses inotify,
|
||||
rather than the default of issuing a warning and reverting to polling.
