2009-09-21doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --helpPádraig Brady1-1/+1
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez
2009-09-01maint: shred: remove unnecessary initializationJim Meyering1-1/+0
* src/shred.c (genpattern): Value stored to "n" is never used.

2009-04-07shred,sort,shuf: don't use /dev/urandom by defaultPádraig Brady1-1/+1
Suggestion from Steven Schveighoffer at: http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?6797 to greatly speed up the random passes done by shred. * gl/lib/randread.c: Default to using the internal pseudorandom generator, rather than reading /dev/urandom * src/shred.c (usage): remove mention of /dev/urandom * src/shuf.c (usage); ditto * src/sort.c (usage): ditto * doc/coreutils.text: Document the new behaviour for aquiring random data.
2009-04-07maint: Clarify ambiguous refs to Linux kernels or GNU/Linux systemsPádraig Brady1-2/+2

2009-01-22shred: change default number of overwrites from 25 to 3Pádraig Brady1-1/+1
* src/shred.c: The concensus is that a default of 3 passes is appropriate for current drive technologies. * src/TODO: Reference Paul Eggert's suggestion of enhancing shred to conform to DoD 5220 rules.
2009-01-16shred: avoid -Wsign-compare warningsPádraig Brady1-3/+3
* src/shred.c: Use already assigned signed variable sizeof_r, rather than the unsigned sizeof(r). Don't use signed integer overflow check that contemporary compilers may remove anyway.
2008-12-01avoid warnings about initialization of automatic aggregatesJim Meyering1-1/+1
* src/system.h (DZA_CONCAT0, DZA_CONCAT): New macros. (DECLARE_ZEROED_AGGREGATE): New macro. * src/ls.c (quote_name): Use it. * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Use it. * src/shred.c (main): Use it. * src/stty.c (main): Use it. * src/wc.c (SUPPORT_OLD_MBRTOWC): Use it.

* src/shred.c (ignorable_sync_errno): New function. (dosync): Use it. Based on a patch from Peter O'Gorman.
2008-06-16remove redundant const directivesJim Meyering1-1/+1
In 1463824d8e7f72c31f1d803d7cfe2b608ccafc5c, I added some missing "const" directives, as well as some new, redundant ones. This removes the redundant ones.

* src/system.h (emit_bug_reporting_address): New function. * src/base64.c: Use it rather than a literal printf. * src/basename.c, src/cat.c, src/chgrp.c, src/chmod.c: * src/chown.c, src/chroot.c, src/cksum.c, src/comm.c, src/cp.c: * src/csplit.c, src/cut.c, src/date.c, src/dd.c, src/df.c: * src/dircolors.c, src/dirname.c, src/du.c, src/echo.c, src/env.c: * src/expand.c, src/expr.c, src/factor.c, src/fmt.c, src/fold.c: * src/head.c, src/hostid.c, src/hostname.c, src/id.c, src/install.c: * src/join.c, src/kill.c, src/link.c, src/ln.c, src/logname.c: * src/ls.c, src/md5sum.c, src/mkdir.c, src/mkfifo.c, src/mknod.c: * src/mv.c, src/nice.c, src/nl.c, src/nohup.c, src/od.c: * src/paste.c, src/pathchk.c, src/pinky.c, src/pr.c, src/printenv.c: * src/printf.c, src/ptx.c, src/pwd.c, src/readlink.c, src/rm.c: * src/rmdir.c, src/seq.c, src/setuidgid.c, src/shred.c, src/shuf.c: * src/sleep.c, src/sort.c, src/split.c, src/stat.c, src/stty.c: * src/su.c, src/sum.c, src/sync.c, src/system.h, src/tac.c: * src/tail.c, src/tee.c, src/test.c, src/touch.c, src/tr.c: * src/true.c, src/tsort.c, src/tty.c, src/uname.c, src/unexpand.c: * src/uniq.c, src/unlink.c, src/uptime.c, src/users.c, src/wc.c: * src/who.c, src/whoami.c, src/yes.c: Likewise.
2006-11-27Improve the check for departures from C89, and fix the departuresPaul Eggert1-0/+4
I found. * Makefile.maint (my-distcheck): Also check for C89 compatibility as best we can with GCC. * src/stat.c (PRINTF_OPTION): Omit comma before } in enum declaration; C89 doesn't allow this. * src/dcgen: Don't generate string literals longer than what C89 requires support for. * src/cut.c (usage): Don't use string literals longer than what C89 requires support for. * src/date.c (usage): Likewise. * src/dd.c (usage): Likewise. * src/du.c (usage): Likewise. * src/ls.c (usage): Likewise. * src/od.c (usage): Likewise. * src/readlink.c (usage): Likewise. * src/seq.c (usage): Likewise. * src/shred.c (usage): Likewise.
2006-10-10* src/ls.c (quote_name): Use initializer rather than memset toPaul Eggert1-3/+1
initialize an object to zero. This is easier to read and is less likely to introduce an runtime error due to a mixup. It causes gcc -W to issue a warning, but you can work around this by appending -Wno-missing-field-initializers. * src/pathchk.c (portable_chars_only): Likewise. * src/shred.c (main): Likewise. * src/stty.c (main): Likewise. * src/tr.c (card_of_complement): Likewise. * src/wc.c (wc): Likewise.
2006-09-03Don't include dirname.h, since system.h does it now.Paul Eggert1-1/+0
2006-08-26Include <config.h> unconditionally, since we now assume config.h exists.Paul Eggert1-3/+1
2006-08-25Fix typo in previous checkin; a "&" went missing.Paul Eggert1-1/+1
2006-08-25Rewrite to avoid some unnecessary casts, macros, literals.Paul Eggert1-39/+49
(DEFAULT_PASSES, VERBOSE_UPDATE): Now constants, not macros. (SECTOR_SIZE, SECTOR_MASK): New constants. (fillpattern, dopass, do_wipefd, main): Remove unnecessary casts, and use the SECTOR_* constants when applicable. Check for size < 0 rather than size == -1, since negative-size files are a sign of trouble anyway. (dopass): Assume a continuable error if EIO even if the current position is not a multiple of 512.
2006-08-13* src/shred.c (usage): Don't indent the second line of an item.Jim Meyering1-3/+3
Otherwise, help2man would misformat the output. Reported by Adam Buchbinder in <https://launchpad.net/bugs/48917>.
2006-08-08Use new random-number interface rather than rand-isaac.c.Paul Eggert1-105/+53
Don't include rand-isaac.c; include randint.h and randread.h instead. (RANDOM_SOURCE_OPTION): New enum. (long_opts, usage, main): New option --random-source. (struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Remove. All callers changed to use randint interface. (fillrand): Remove. All callers changed to use randread interface. (dopass): Remove dependency on ISAAC buffer size. (genpattern): Don't wipe the random state here. (randint_source): New static var. (clear_random_data): New function. (main): Allocate random source, and arrange to wipe it on exit.
2006-04-19(fillrand): The assertion was way too weak, due toPaul Eggert1-12/+7
what must be a typo. Strengthen it to its intended value. (dopass): Don't use alloca; it's not worth the aggravation here, since it's used only to get a page-aligned buffer, and page alignment doesn't buy us much here. I'm suspicious that alloca causes problems on some hosts, due to a recent bug report by Adam Waltman.
2006-03-26(wipename): Use new last_component, in place of base_name.Jim Meyering1-2/+2
2005-12-27(wipename): Use similar open flags to other places we open directories.Paul Eggert1-3/+1
Don't bother trying to open dir for writing, since POSIX prohibits it.
2005-12-12(struct irand_state, irand_init, irand32, irand_mod): Moved back here,Paul Eggert1-0/+60
from rand-isaac.c.
2005-12-12Include rand-isaac.c rather than rand-isaac.h.Paul Eggert1-7/+6
(fillrand, dopass, main): Undo previous change.
2005-12-10Don't include gethrxtime.h. No longer needed.Jim Meyering1-1/+0
2005-12-10Include rand-isaac.h. Move ISAAC code to rand-isaac.c.Paul Eggert1-385/+7
(fillrand, main): Adjust to the fact that the state size is now runtime-configurable.
2005-09-24Use `#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H', not `#if HAVE_CONFIG_H', for consistency with ↵Jim Meyering1-1/+1
gnulib.
2005-07-11(wipefile): Always use binary mode. Clearly thisPaul Eggert1-2/+2
never worked right on DOS!
2005-07-03Include fcntl--.h, not unistd-safer.h.Paul Eggert1-3/+1
(wipename, wipe_file): Don't use fd_safer; no longer needed now that we include fcntl--.h.
2005-06-19(usage): Use `file system', not `filesystem'.Jim Meyering1-2/+2
2005-06-17(usage): Clarify that shred works on an ext3 fileJim Meyering1-1/+9
system as long as it's not in data=journal mode. Tiny change by Mark Melahn.
2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering1-1/+1
2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering1-1/+1
2005-04-11Include unistd-safer.h.Paul Eggert1-26/+7
(wipename): Use fd_safer on directory file descriptor. (wipefile): Remove special case for /dev/fd/* on older hosts. It didn't work in general, and wasn't documented. Use fd_safer.
2005-04-09Remove all uses of signals; modern hosts havePaul Eggert1-78/+0
/dev/random and don't need this gorp. Do not include signal.h. (env, sigill_handler, isaac_seed_machdep): Remove. All uses removed.
2005-03-06Remove register keyword.Jim Meyering1-3/+3
2005-02-21Include gethrxtime.h.Paul Eggert1-17/+2
(isaac_seed): Use gethrxtime rather than a mishmash.
2005-01-15(isaac_seed) [HAVE_GETHRTIME]: #if-0 this block,Jim Meyering1-1/+4
because just calling gethrtime evokes an `illegal instruction' failure when compiled with Sun's c89 on Solaris 8 and 9.
2005-01-15(isaac_seed) [HAVE_GETHRTIME]: Don't call ISAAC_SEEDJim Meyering1-11/+5
twice with the same value of `t'. Replace nested #if-#else blocks with #if-#elif-#elif chain.
