getline(3) expects newline-terminated input. While glibc's
implementation seems to catch unterminated input and zero the
buffer, other versions (notably musl's) do not.
This is a workaround. Garbage will still be read, but
not printed.
This client does not support the netascii mode. The default mode
is octet/binary and should be sufficient.
One thing left to do is to check the source port of the server
to make sure it doesn't change. If it does, we should ignore the
packet and send an error back without disturbing an existing
transfer.
Previously, a line read from file 1 before a strcmp was
performed would be overwritten and lost. Something like
this:
comm one_line_file empty_file
produced no output.
This patch is a bit inelegant, but quite simple.
1) Remove the function prototypes. No need for them, as the
functions are ordered.
2) Add fieldseplen, so the length of the field-separator is not
calculated nearly each time skipcolumn() is called.
3) rename next_col to skip_to_next_col so the purpose is clear,
also reorder the conditional accordingly.
4) Put parentheses around certain ternary expressions.
5) BUGFIX: Don't just exit() in check(), but make it return something,
so we can cleanly fshut() everything.
6) OFF-POSIX: Posix for no apparent reason does not allow more than
one file when the -c or -C flags are given.
This can be problematic when you want to check multiple files.
With the change 5), rewriting check() to return a value, I went
off-posix after discussing this with Dimitris to just allow
arbitrary numbers of files. Obviously, this does not break scripts
and is convenient for everybody who wants to quickly check a big
amount of files.
As soon as 1 file is "unsorted", the return value is 1, as expected.
For convenience reasons, check()'s warning now includes the filename.
7) BUGFIX: Set ret to 2 instead of 1 when the fshut(fp, *argv) fails.
8) BUGFIX: Don't forget to fshut stderr at the end. This would improperly
return 1 in the following case:
$ sort -c unsorted_file 2> /dev/full
9) Other style changes, line length, empty line before return.
Make it clear that <blank> characters just are spaces or tabs and
not a special group which needs special treatment for wide characters.
Also, and that was the only problem here, correctly calculate the
offset given by the key definitions for the start- and end-characters
using libutf-utility-functions.
Mark the progress in the README and put parentheses around the missing
flags which are insane to implement for no real gain.
I kind of missed that the sorting was still not properly done.
parse_flags() and addkeydef() are independent of everything else,
so they can be put at the bottom.
Sorting the other functions reveals the true hierarchy much better.
This is much easier to read than having yet another handrolled
list implementation.
Tested and more or less clearly equivalent.
Now that I have uni-vac, I'll have enough time to refactor more.
Using $(LD) directly for linking can cause issues with cross-compilers
and various other toolchains, as various libraries such as libc may not
be implicitly linked in, causing symbol resolution errors.
Linking through the C compiler frontend solves this issue.
1) Don't default to a space for numeric conversions. Instead,
set flag to 0 and work with it on a case-basis.
This fixes the wrong output of "printf %d 20" which had a
space prepended to it (" 20").
2) Add precision for doiuxX, which is zero-padding.
This fixes the wrong output of "printf %.5d 20" to properly
print "00020".
Thanks to emg for reporting these!
The original flush-stdin loop (with fgets()) hung until the user
entered some extraneous characters for it to kill.
emg's FIXME about nulls still applies.
Previously, 'cksum *' exited early if * contained a directory or
other file causing an fread() error.
Exit status is set to indicate an error has occurred.
glibc breaks tools on 32bit systems due to a design flaw not allowing
64bit file offsets and only doing so with a cryptic flag.
Also, make sure to tell users about -lrt, which might be needed on
some systems.
Where should I start? It's a rather irrelevant tool and broken as is.
We'll re-add it as soon as the code has been fixed by the original
author.
Until then, better keep it out or some kids get hurt.
This was broken in multiple ways. For instance, the overlay-
check of identical files (name and target) was omitted for
symbolic links for some reason.
While at it, I fixed the stat-handling, improved the error-
messages so the right paths were shown and removed the
illegimite bail-out when the target-fstatat failed (we want
only a warning here as well).
Get rid of the !!()-constructs and use ret where available (or introduce it).
In some cases, there would be an "abort" on the first fshut-error, but we want
to close all files and report all warnings and then quit, not just the warning
for the first file.
The argument handling was quite garbled up. So I fixed it.
In the process, it drops a lot of locs.
Previously, it would lead to an off-by-one in an edge case, so
stop messing around with argv and use an idiomatic fp- and fname-
array.
Now this works fine and is much easier to read.
This is also the first step towards going back to strcmp() instead
of handrolling the "-"-checks.
Otherwise, we run into problems in a typical autoconf-based build
system:
- config.status is created at some point between two seconds.
- config.status is run, generating Makefile by first writing to a file
in /tmp, and then mv-ing it to Makefile.
- If this mv happens before the beginning of the next second, Makefile
will be created with the same tv_sec as config.status, but with
tv_nsec = 0.
- When make runs, it sees that Makefile is older than config.status,
and re-runs config.status to generate Makefile.
