It ports around issues that our handwritten code does not.
* gnulib.modules: Add xalignalloc.
* src/misc.c (ptr_align, page_aligned_alloc): Remove.
All page_aligned_alloc callers changed to use xalignalloc.
This is part of the general guideline that signed integer types
are safer.
* src/names.c (stripped_prefix_len): Return ptrdiff_t,
not size_t. All callers changed.
* src/system.c (oct_to_env): Don’t assume mode_t fits in unsigned
long. Do not output excess leading 1 bits. When the mode is
zero, generate "0" rather than "00". Use sprintf instead of
snprintf, since the output won’t be truncated; in general we don’t
use snprintf unless we want output to be truncated and truncation
is typically not GNU style.
It’s now safe to assume support for C99 formats like %jd, so remove
some of the longwinded formatting code put in only to be portable to
pre-C99 platforms.
* gnulib.modules: Add intprops.
* src/buffer.c (format_total_stats, try_new_volume)
(write_volume_label):
* src/checkpoint.c (format_checkpoint_string):
* src/compare.c (verify_volume):
* src/create.c (to_chars_subst, dump_regular_file):
* src/incremen.c (read_num):
* src/list.c (read_and, from_header, simple_print_header)
(print_for_mkdir):
* src/sparse.c (sparse_dump_region):
* src/system.c (dec_to_env, sys_exec_info_script)
(sys_exec_checkpoint_script):
* src/xheader.c (out_of_range_header):
Prefer C99 formats like %jd and %ju to STRINGIFY_BIGINT.
* src/common.h: Sort includes.
Include intprops.h, verify.h. All other includes of verify.h
removed.
(intmax, uintmax): New functions and macros.
(STRINGIFY_BIGINT): Remove; no longer used.
(TIMESPEC_STRSIZE_BOUND): Make it 1 byte bigger, for negatives.
* src/create.c (MAX_VAL_WITH_DIGITS, to_base256):
Use *_WIDTH macros rather than assuming no padding bits.
Prefer UINTMAX_MAX to (uintmax_t) -1.
* src/list.c (tartime): Use strftime result rather
than running strlen later.
* src/misc.c (timetostr): New function. Prefer it when
printing time_t values.
Also, fix some rounding errors while we’re in the neighborhood.
* src/buffer.c (duration_ns, compute_duration_ns): Rename from
‘duration’ and ‘compute_duration’, and count ns rather than s, to
lessen rounding error. All uses changed.
(compute_duration_ns): Work even if the clock moves backward
and time_t is unsigned.
(print_stats): Don’t worry about null or empty TEXT, as that
cannot happen. Compare double to UINTMAX_MAX + 1.0, not
to UINTMAX_MAX, so that the comparison is exact.
Handle the unlikely case that numbytes >= UINTMAX_MAX.
* src/tar.c (parse_opt): Treat -L hugenumber as effectively
infinity rather than erroring out.
Prefer ckd_add to checking overflow by hand.
* src/buffer.c (bufmap_reset, _flush_write):
Use ptrdiff_t, not ssize_t, to record pointer differences.
POSIX allows systems where size_t is 64 bits but ssize_t is only 32;
Ultrix used to do that, though no current systems do.
Problem reported by Collin Funk in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-tar/2024-07/msg00000.html
though this patch is more general than Collin’s suggestion.
* src/compare.c (diff_multivol):
* src/delete.c (move_archive):
* src/sparse.c (oldgnu_add_sparse, pax_decode_header):
* src/system.c (mtioseek):
Prefer ckd_add and ckd_mul to the intprops.h equivalents,
since stdckdint.h is now standard.
* src/list.c (read_header): Use ckd_add instead of
doing overflow checking by hand. Although the old code
was correct on all practical hosts, the new code is simpler
and works even on weird hosts where SIZE_MAX <= INT_MAX.
* gnulib.modules: Add assert-h, for static_assert.
* src/common.h, src/list.c, src/misc.c:
Prefer static_assert to #if + #error. This doesn’t fix any bugs; it’s
just that in general it’s better to avoid the preprocessor.
* gnulib.modules: Add stddef, for ‘unreachable’.
* src/compare.c (dumpdir_cmp): Tell GCC that the default case
is unreachable. Make just one pass through the string,
instead of two passes (one via strcmp, another via strlen).
* src/common.h (GLOBAL): Remove this macro, and all its uses.
It collides with GCC 14 and -Wmissing-variable-declarations.
Change all uses of GLOBAL to use extern instead,
and declare the variables in their respective .c files.
Move .c file’s extern declarations here, so that they
appear only once and are checked against definitions.
* src/names.c (unconsumed_option_tail): Now static.
* configure.ac: Omit stuff no longer needed now that Gnulib or
paxlib does it, or the code no longer needs the configure-time checks.
Do not use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE (Gnulib largefile does this) or check
for fcntl.h, memory.h, net/errno.h, sgtty.h, string.h,
sys/param.h, sys/device.h, sys/gentape.h, sys/inet.h,
sys/io/trioctl.h, sys/time.h, sys/tprintf.h, sys/tape.h, unistd.h,
locale.h, netdb.h; these are all now standard, or old ways of getting
at magtapes are no longer needed and we now have only sys/mtio.h.
Do not check for lstat, readlink, symlink, and check only for
waitpid’s existence rather than attempting to replace it.
Do not check for decls of getgrgid, getpwuid, or time.
Check just once for iconv.h.
* gnulib.modules: Add largefile.
* lib/.gitignore, lib/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS, libtar_a_SOURCES):
Remove system-ioctl.h, which is no longer in paxlib.
All includes now changed to just check HAVE_SYS_MTIO_H directly.
* lib/wordsplit.c (wordsplit_c_escape_tab, wordsplit_errstr)
(wordsplit_nerrs):
Now static or an enum, and without any leading "_" in the name.
* src/buffer.c (record_start, record_end, current_block, records_read):
* src/delete.c (records_skipped): Add extern decl to pacify GCC.
* src/compare.c, src/create.c, src/extract.c: Omit uses of
HAVE_READLINK and HAVE_SYMLINK since we now let Gnulib deal with
platforms lacking readlinkat and symlinkat.
* src/system.c: Use "#if !HAVE_WAITPID" instead of "#if MSDOS".
* src/checkpoint.c (format_checkpoint_string):
Use current_timespec to get nanosecond resolution.
This also frees us from the necessity of including <sys/time.h>
to use gettimeofday, which is removed in POSIX.1-2024.
Bug reported in https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65838.
Bug introduced by 79d1ac38c1.
* src/extract.c (make_directories): Restore second argument. This
reverts the change made in 79d1ac38c1.
(maybe_recoverable, rename_directory): Update calls to make_directories.
* tests/extrac27.at: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add new test.
* tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
* src/buffer.c (seek_archive): If EOF has been read, don’t attempt
to seek past it. This replaces a bogus "rmtlseek not stopped at a
record boundary" message with a better "Unexpected EOF in archive"
when I run ‘tar tvf gtar13c.tar’ using the gtar13.tar file here:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-tar/2024-03/msg00001.html
This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64387.
* src/exclist.c (info_attach_exclist): Always use file->flags.
(exclude_vcs_ignores): Pass flags from struct vcs_ignore_file
to excfile_add.
* tests/exclude19.at: New test.
* tests/exclude20.at: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add new tests.
* tests/testsuite.at: Add new tests.
* src/suffix.c (find_compression_suffix): Always return stripped
archive name length in the last argument. Return 0 if there is no
suffix.
(find_compression_program): Remove.
(set_compression_program_by_suffix): Take third argument, controlling
whether to issue a warning if no suitable compression program is found
for the suffix.
* src/common.h (set_compression_program_by_suffix): Change prototype.
* src/buffer.c, src/tar.c: All uses of set_compression_program_by_suffix
changed.
Support upcasing and downcasing in multi-byte locales.
* gnulib.modules: Add c32rtomb, c32tolower, c32toupper,
mbrtoc32-regular.
* src/transform.c: Do not include ctype.h. Include mcel.h.
(stk, stk_init): Move up.
(run_case_conv): Return void, not char *. Append result to
stk directly; this avoids the need for a separate allocation.
All callers changed. Do not assume a single-byte locale.
* tests/xform04.at: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT):
* tests/testsuite.at: Add it.
update submodules to latest
* gnulib.modules: Add c-ctype.
* lib/wordsplit.c, src/buffer.c, src/exclist.c, src/incremen.c:
* src/list.c, src/misc.c, src/names.c, src/sparse.c, src/tar.c:
* src/xheader.c:
Include c-ctype.h, and use its API rather than ctype.h’s.
This is more likely to work when oddball locales are used.
* src/transform.c: Include ctype.h, since this module still uses
tolower and toupper (this is probably wrong - should be multi-byte).
Problem reported by Marc Espie in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-tar/2023-09/msg00003.html
* src/buffer.c (drop_volume_label_suffix):
Redo to not compute a pointer before the start of a buffer,
as this is not portable.
* src/extract.c (delay_set_stat): Simplify hash lookup;
no need to initialize members other than file_name.
Avoid assignment in ‘if’ when it’s easy.
(extract_finish): Do not bother to free when we are about to exit.
delayed_set_stat avoids inserting duplicate entries into
delayed_set_stat_head. It was doing this by scanning the entire
list.
Normally this list is small, but if --delay-directory-restore is
used (including automatically for incremental archives), this list
grows with the total number of directories in the archive.
The entire scan takes O(n) time. Extracting an archive with n
directories could therefore take O(n^2) time.
The included test uses AT_SKIP_LARGE_FILES, allowing it to optionally be
skipped. It may execute slowly on certain filesystems or disks, as it
creates thousands of directories.
There are still potentially problematic O(n) scans in
find_direct_ancestor and remove_delayed_set_stat, which this patch does
not attempt to fix.
* NEWS: Update.
* src/extract.c (delayed_set_stat_table): Create a table for O(1)
lookups of entries in the delayed_set_stat_head list. The list
remains, as tracking insertion order is important.
(dl_hash, dl_compare): New hash table helper functions.
(delay_set_stat): Create the hash table, replace the O(n) list scan
with a hash_lookup, insert new entries into the hash table.
(remove_delayed_set_stat): Also remove entry from hash table.
(apply_nonancestor_delayed_set_stat): Also remove entry from hash
table.
(extract_finish): Free the (empty) hash table.
* tests/extrac26.at: New file.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Include extrac26.at.
* tests/testsuite.at: Include extrac26.at.
Commit e89c7a45eb broke deletion from archives. The reported number
of bytes read is rounded to the nearest record anyway, revert the
commit and document the fact.
Reported by Ed Santiago. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2230127
* doc/tar.texi: Document the fact that --totals rounds up the
number of bytes reads to the nearest record.
* src/buffer.c: Revert changes.
* tests/delete06.at: Fix expected status code and stderr.
* gnulib.modules: Remove alloca.
* src/create.c (dump_file0): Return address of any allocated
storage. Caller changed to free it. Use xmalloc instead
of alloca, to obtain this storage.
* src/list.c (from_header): Use quote_mem instead of quote,
removing the need to use alloca.
* src/common.h (name): New field: is_wildcard.
(name_scan): Change protoype.
* src/delete.c: Update calls to name_scan.
* src/names.c (addname, add_starting_file): Initialize is_wildcard.
(namelist_match): Take two arguments. If second one is true, return
only exact matches.
(name_scan): Likewise. All callers updated.
(name_from_list): Skip patterns.
* src/update.c (remove_exact_name): New function.
(update_archive): Do not remove matching name, if it is a pattern.
Instead, add a new entry with the matching file name.
* tests/update04.at: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add new test.
* tests/testsuite.at: Include new test.
* NEWS: Update.
* doc/tar.1: Add missing dots, use plural when necessary,
tweak a wording. Remove an incorrect observation, three times.
Add some missing articles, correct some formatting,
and expand the opaque descriptions of two options.
* doc/tar.texi: Drop a stray `cd` command from an example.
Correct two cross references, correct the paragraph
about the manpage, and unbreak a URL.
* src/names.c: Correct and shorten an error message: "non-optional"
means "mandatory", but "non-option" is what was meant. And the
phrase "in archive create or update mode" was both unneeded and
incomplete.
* tests/positional01.at: Change expected error text.
* tests/positional02.at: Likewise.
* tests/positional03.at: Likewise.
Extract delayed links in tar file order, rather than
in hash table order with modifications.
This is simpler and more likely to use the kernel’s
cached filesystem data, assuming related delayed links
are nearby in the tar file.
* src/extract.c (struct delayed_link.has_predecessor):
Remove. All uses removed.
(delayed_link_head, delayed_link_tail): New static vars.
This resurrects delayed_link_head’s old function
except that the linked list is now in forward order, not reverse.
(find_delayed_link_source): Now simply returns bool,
since the callers no longer need the pointer.
(create_placeholder_file):
Put the delayed link at the end of the linked list.
Omit no-longer-needed last arg. All callers changed.
(apply_delayed_links): Simplify now that we can just iterate
through the delayed_link_head list.
