4 $CPPFLAGS $CFLAGS everywhere $CC is used.
5 * lib/Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Likewise.
6 * configure.ac: Test the exit code of the $CPP and $ASCPPPOST commands
9 2006-12-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
11 * configure.ac (ASCPPPOST): Simplify to use just 'sed'.
12 * lib/Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Check for CPP failure.
14 2006-12-11 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
16 Cross-compilation support.
17 * configure.ac (ASCPP): Remove substituted variable.
18 (ASCPPPOST, ASCPPFLAGS): New substituted variables.
19 * lib/Makefile.am (ASCPP, LN_S): Remove unnecessary macro definitions.
20 (match.$(OBJEXT)): Use CPP, ASCPPFLAGS, ASCPPPOST instead of ASCPP.
21 * configure.ac: Add test for chown function.
22 * gzip.c (treat_file) [!HAVE_CHOWN]: Don't call chown.
23 * gzip.c: Include "timespec.h". This doesn't fix any bugs, but
26 2006-12-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
28 The SSIZE_MAX fix didn't work on NSK, so fix it in a more-reliable
29 (albeit more-complicated) way. Problem reported by Matthew Woehlke.
30 * gzip.h (read_buffer): New decl.
31 * unlzw.c (unlzw): Use read_buffer rather than read.
32 * zip.c (file_read): Likewise.
33 * util.c (copy, fill_inbuf): Likewise.
34 (read_buffer, write_buffer): New functions.
35 (write_buf): Use write_buffer rather than write.
37 Undo the previous SSIZE_MAX-related change; it didn't work.
38 * gzip.c: Include <limits.h>.
40 * gzip.h: Don't include <limits.h>.
41 (INBUFSIZ): Don't worry about SSIZE_MAX here.
43 2006-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
45 * NEWS, configure.ac (AC_INIT):
46 Version 1.3.8 released.
48 * gzexe.in (mktemp_status): New var, used to see whether
49 mktemp is a known command. Use this instead of confounding
50 mktemp's existence with its success.
52 * zdiff.in: Remove first line containing ":". This follows
53 up on the SEDCMD fix of 2006-12-01.
54 * zforce.in: Likewise.
60 Fix problems in porting to NSK reported by Matthew Woehlke in
61 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2006-12/msg00025.html> and
62 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2006-12/msg00027.html>.
63 * gzip.h: Include <limits.h>, for SSIZE_MAX.
64 (INBUFSIZE): Don't make it any larger than SSIZE_MAX.
65 Problem reported by Matthew Woehlke in
66 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2006-11/msg00013.html>.
67 * gzip.c: Don't include <limits.h>, as gzip.h now does this.
69 * gzip.c (main): Set exiting_signal before installing signal handlers.
70 (install_signal_handlers): Don't set exiting_signal here. This
72 * zip.c: Include timespec.h, for time_stamp type.
74 2006-12-08 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de> (tiny change)
76 * gzexe.in: Work around FreeBSD shell trap bug.
78 * doc/gzip.texi: Likewise.
80 2006-12-08 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
82 * .cvsignore: Add .deps, gzexe, gzip, zdiff, zforce, zgrep,
84 * doc/.cvsignore: Add Makefile.
85 * lib/.cvsignore: Add .deps, Makefile, alloca.h, config.h, fcntl.h,
86 stamp-h1, stdint.h, sys.
88 * configure.ac (for assembler): Set ASFLAGS_config to
89 -Wa,--noexecstack if this seems advisable on this platform.
90 Problem reported by Mike Frysinger in
91 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2006-12/msg00018.html>.
92 * lib/Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Use ASFLAGS_config.
94 2006-12-07 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

105 * NEWS, configure.ac (AC_INIT):
106 Version 1.3.7 released.
108 2006-12-06 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org> (tiny change)
109 and Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
111 Fix build failure on case-insensitive file systems.
112 * configure.ac: Use match_.s instead of _match.s.
113 * Makefile.am (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Likewise.
114 * lib/Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Likewise.
115 (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Likewise.
117 2006-12-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
119 * NEWS: Document the fixes below.
120 * configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Add siginterrupt.
121 * gzip.c (lstat) [!defined(HAVE_LSTAT) && !defined(lstat)]: Remove.
122 (SA_NOCLDSTOP, sigprocmask, sigset_t) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP]:
124 (siginterrupt) [!defined SA_NOCLDSTOP && ! HAVE_SIGINTERRUPT]:
126 (HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW): Define to 0 if not defined.
127 (caught_signals, exiting_signal, remove_ofname_fd): New vars.
128 (remove_ofname): Remove; all uses changed to remove_ofname_fd.
129 (same_file, name_too_long): Remove.
130 (install_signal_handlers): New function. It prefers sigaction,
131 which is more reliable in the presence of race conditions.
132 Catch SIGXCPU and SIGXFSZ, too.
133 (main): Use it instead of installing them by hand.
134 (treat_file): Check for read error when closing ifd.
135 (treat_file, create_outfile, remove_output_file):
136 Avoid race conditions with signals.
137 (create_outfile, check_ofname): Remove most of the gorp about
138 working around ENAMETOOLONG deficiencies. It's obsolete now, and
139 anyway it had race conditions. Just rely on O_EXCL and
140 ENAMETOOLONG. The worst that can happen is that a file name will
141 be silently truncated on an obsolete machine, but no data will be lost.
142 (open_and_stat): Use HAVE_WORKING_O_NOFOLLOW rather than O_NOFOLLOW
143 to work around some O_NOFOLLOW bugs. Otherwise, fall back on
144 lstat only if lstat is available, as symlinks don't exist otherwise.
145 (open_input_file): Use O_NONBLOCK and O_NOCTTY too, to avoid
146 hanging gzip on special files.
147 (abort_gzip_signal): If sigaction is not available, ignore
148 signals. If we get the exiting signal, exit with ERROR status
149 rather than raising a signal.
150 * tailor.h (NO_ST_INO): Remove; no longer used now that same_file
153 2006-12-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
155 Port to Tandem NSK/OSS, which lacks fchdir. Problem reported by
157 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2006-11/msg00013.html>.
158 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove openat, as it pulls in
160 * configure.ac: Check for fdopendir.
161 * gzip.c: Don't include openat.h; no longer needed.
162 (treat_dir) [!HAVE_FDOPENDIR]: Fall back on the old opendir method
163 since fdopendir is not available.
165 2006-12-04 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
167 * NEWS: Describe the following change briefly.
168 * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove stat-macros; no longer
170 * gzip.c: Don't include stat-macros.h; no longer needed.
171 (treat_file): Refuse to compress files that are setuid, or setgid,
172 as this can in theory lead to security holes. Also, refuse to
173 compress files with the sticky bit set, on general principle.
174 (copy_stat): Don't copy the setuid, setgid, or sticky bits,
175 as (given the above change) they'll always be zero here.
176 Invoke chmod before chown, to close a race condition.
178 * .cvsignore: Add *.doc, build-aux.
179 * doc/.cvignore: New file.
180 * lib/.cvsignore: New file.
181 * m4/.cvsignore: New file.
183 2006-12-01 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
185 * doc/gzip.texi (Overview): Mention limits of gzip format's
186 time stamps. Also, gzip doesn't always preserve time stamps.
188 * gzip.c (abort_gzip_signal): Don't call abort () as a "safeguard",
189 since it actually causes a core dump. Problem reported by
192 * NEWS: Describe gzexe changes noted below.
193 * Makefile.am (.in): Don't bother with SEDCMD. This stuff isn't needed
194 any more (the hosts it caters to are long extinct), and was
195 questionable anyway since the code assumes the skip= line was line 2.
196 * configure.ac (AC_SYS_INTERPRETER, SEDCMD): Remove; no longer needed.
198 * gzexe.in: Sweep the code and fix some bugs.
199 My, what sharp teeth you have, gzexe!
200 The straw that broke this camel's back was Matthew Burgess's bug report
201 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2006-11/msg00012.html>.
203 (IFS): Set it to the standard value, both here and in the
204 script gzexe generates.
205 Check for missing operand after parsing options, not before.
206 This fixes the case for "cpexe --".
207 Check for tail -n problem separately in gzexe and in the executable
208 it generates, in case it's a different 'tail'.
209 (trap): Remove $tmp only if $tmp is not the empty string.
210 Preserve exit status.
211 Don't use the nonstandard (and rarely available) "cpmod" utility.
212 Don't use "set -C"; it's no longer useful and it breaks things
214 (main loop): Handle file names beginning with "-".
215 Exit with status of failing program, not with 1.
216 Fix some bugs in printing diagnostics, and in quoting.
217 Require the skip= line to have at least one digit.
218 Use test -u and test -g rather than using the (less-reliable) ls.
219 Refuse to compress more programs, e.g., sh.
220 Use mktemp rather than tempfile. Build a copy of
221 the compressed or uncompressed executable in the same
222 directory as the executable, as that's less likely to go wrong
223 if disk space is low. Have the executable exit with status 127,
224 not 1, if the decompression process fails; this is more compatible
225 with meta-programs like nohup. Have the executable
226 uncompress to a temp file with the same basename as the executable;
227 this is more likely to go right. Fix a race condition where the
228 executable temporarily did not exist (in either old or new forms).
229 Check for race conditions better when mv fails. Do not attempt
230 to use cp to do the real work, only to copy permissions to a temp
231 file, since we don't want to trash running executables.
233 2006-11-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
235 * inflate.c (inflate_dynamic, inflate): Don't send output to
236 stderr unless DEBUG is defined and 'verbose'. Problem reported by
239 * zgrep.in: If the file name contains newline, &, \, or |, escape
240 the character so that 'sed' doesn't mishandle it as a replacement.
241 Problem reported by Bdale Garbee.
243 2006-11-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
245 * gzip.1 (OPTIONS): ouput -> output. Problem reported by Matt
247 * vms/gzip.hlp: Likewise.
249 * Makefile.am (FILES_TO_CHECK): New macro.
250 (check-local): Check only the files in FILES_TO_CHECK, since some
251 files under the working directory might be mutating as the test is
252 run, e.g., with "make check >log". Problem reported by Jim
255 2006-11-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
257 * NEWS, configure.ac (AC_INIT):

281 for sys/utime.h or utime.h.
282 (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Replace AC_CHECK_FUNCS. Check for fchmod
283 and fchown, not utime.
284 (AC_REPLACE_FUNCS): Remove; rpmatch is now done by gnulib.
285 (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add doc/Makefile, lib/Makefile.
287 * bits.c: Use the more-usual form for copyright notices in source code.
288 * deflate.c: Likewise.

293 * revision.h: Likewise.
294 * tailor.h: Likewise.
296 * unpack.c: Likewise.
299 * crypt.c (dummy): Add decl so that pedantic compilers won't
300 complain about an empty file.
301 * gzip.c (license_msg): Use more-modern wording.
302 Include fcntl-safer.h, openat.h, stat-macros.h, stat-time.h.
303 Simply include <dirent.h> if !NO_DIR, removing a rats-nest of
305 Simply include <utimens.h> if !defined NO_UTIME, removing a
306 another rats-nest of #ifdefs.
307 (DIR_OPT, TIME_OPT): Remove.
308 (_D_EXACT_NAMLEN): Renamed from NAMLEN. All uses changed.
309 (S_ISDIR, S_ISREG, O_BINARY, O_CREAT, O_EXCL, S_IRUSR, S_IWUSR):
310 Remove; gnulib now does this.
311 (RETSIGTYPE): Remove; Autoconf does this.
312 (program_name): Renamed from progname, for compatibility with gnulib.
314 (time_stamp): Now struct timespec, not time_t. All uses changd.
315 (remove_oftime): Now volatile.
316 (reset_times): Remove; now done by futimens.
318 (try_help): New function.
319 (help, license): Don't output date as part of version.
320 A version number suffices.
321 (help): Redo help message to match style of coreutils etc.
322 (version): Don't bother printing compile-time configuration info
324 (main): Don't assume strlen (argv[0]) < INT_MAX (!).
325 On usage errors, suggest --help without outputting all the help.
326 (main, do_list): Remove unnecessary casts.
327 (treat_stdin, treat_file, get_method, copy_stat):
328 Support sub-second time stamp resolution.
329 (treat_file, copy_istat): Close some race conditions if files are
330 renamed as we read or write them.
331 (treat_file): Do not attempt to reset the access times of
332 directories that we read.
333 (open_and_stat, open_input_file): New functions.
334 (do_stat, get_istat): Remove; most of the contents went to these new
336 (make_ofname): Don't use WARN, as it affects exit status.
337 (get_method): When the original file name was truncated,
338 restore from its base name, not from its full name.
339 (do_list): Avoid undefined behavior with out-of-range time stamps.
340 ctime, for example, cannot be invoked on arbitrary time stamps safely,
341 since it might overrun an internal buffer. Do not assume that
343 (copy_stat): Do not remove input file; that's now the caller's
344 responsibility. This avoids a problem if there is a write error
345 when the caller closes the output file.
346 (treat_dir): New arg FD, to avoid a race condition. All uses changed.
347 (remove_output_file): New function.
348 (abort_gzip): Use it.
349 (abort_gzip_signal): New function, which is async-signal-safe.
350 Exit with the signal that we got.
351 * gzip.h (program_name, time_stamp, abort_gzip): Adjust decls to
352 match gzip.c changes.
353 * inflate.c (huft_build): Return 2 if null input.
354 * tailor.h (HAVE_UTIME): Do not define; gnulib does this now.
355 (OPEN): Use open_safer, not plain open.
356 * unlzh.c (NPT): Set to 1<<TBIT, not to the maximum of NT and NP.
357 (make_table): Report an error if 1<<tablebits < nextcode.
358 (read_pt_len): Report an error if 16 < c.
359 * unpack.c (read_tree): Report an error if the tree has too many
360 leaves while reading it. Fix off-by-one error in final check.
361 * util.c: Include <xalloc.h>, for xalloc_die decl.
362 (gzip_base_name): Renamed from base_name, so we don't collide
363 with gnulib. All uses changed.
364 (add_envopt): Use xstrdup instead of xmalloc+strcpy.
365 Use xcalloc rather than calloc + check.
366 (gzip_error): Renamed from error, so we don't collide with gnulib.
368 (xalloc_die): New function.
369 (xmalloc): Remove; no longer needed.
370 * zip.c (zip): Watch for time stamp overflow; the old code
371 mishandled negative time stamps.

374 Don't call basename or sed if we can avoid it.
375 * zdiff.in: Likewise.

388 (BUGS): Mention that input file arguments are required.
389 Add copyright notice.
391 * COPYING: Update to current version.
393 * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): New macro.

396 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove getopt.h.
397 (gzip_SOURCES): Remove getopt.c, getopt1.c, yesno.c.

399 (AM_MAKEINFOFLAGS, info_TEXINFOS, gzip_TEXINFOS, ASCPP, LN_S):
400 (match.$(OBJEXT)): Move to subdirectory makefiles.
401 (.in): Substitute @VERSION@, too.
402 (check-local): New rule.
403 (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Add _match.S.
405 * doc/gzip.texi: Renamed from gzip.texi. Change to GNU FDL
406 without invariant sections or cover texts. Don't put
407 version number or date into sample gzip -h output.
408 * lib/match.c: Renamed from match.c. Add ia64 version
409 written by Sverre Jarp (HP Labs).
411 * INSTALL: Remove from CVS; now created automatically by

436 * NEWS, README, revision.h, configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE):
437 Revision 1.3.5, dated today.
439 * util.c (fprint_off): Fix bug in printing values greater than
440 10 * 2**32 bytes. Bug reported by Bryan Andersen.
442 * Makefile.am (match.$(OBJEXT)): Use .S as extension for $(ASCPP),
444 * configure.in: Likewise.
445 Upgrade assembly-language checking for Autoconf 2.54, using cache vars.

453 * gzip.texi (Overview): Suggest how to use gunzip on zip files.
455 * zless.1, zless.in: Use LESSOPEN, not PAGER.
456 Suggested by <antos@MAST.queensu.ca>.
458 2002-09-28 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
460 * zforce.in: Use shell pattern matching instead of 'expr', which
461 mishandles names like "+". Remove old check for 14-byte file
462 names on hosts with broken "mv" implementations, as such systems
463 aren't in use any more and it's better nowadays to support file
464 names longer than 14 bytes. Rely on "mv"'s error-reporting.
465 This fixes a portability bug reported by Ralf Neubauer, along
466 with some other bugs.
468 Remove dangling output symlinks properly.
469 Bug reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.
470 * gzip.c (lstat): New macro, for platforms lacking lstat.
472 (name_too_long, check_ofname): Use lstat instead of stat.
474 2002-09-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
476 * zforce.in: Use "gzip -lv", not "gzip -v". Patch by Ralf
479 * configure.in (ASCPP): Don't use test -a, as POSIX says it's
482 * zmore.in: Likewise. Similarly, don't use test -o, or test -t
485 * gzexe.in (PATH): Set to same as other programs.
486 Don't assume "tail +22" works; POSIX removed this.
487 Check against compressing "tail".
488 Check against "skip=" line with no integer.
489 * zgrep.in: Exit with status 2 if trouble, for consistency with grep.
491 * gzip.c (main): Avoid core dump in diagnostic message if
492 incorrect suffix is given.
494 2002-09-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
496 * zdiff.in: Use "trap -" instead of "trap". Patch by Nicolas Boullis.
497 Use names, not numbers, for signals. Patch by Andrew Stribblehill.
499 * NEWS, README, revision.h, configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE):
500 Revision 1.3.4, dated today.
502 * README-alpha: Upgrade to Autoconf 2.54 and Automake 1.7.
503 * configure.in (AC_PREREQ): Move to start, and increase to 2.54.
504 (AC_INIT, AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR, AC_CONFIG_FILES,
505 AC_OUTPUT): Use modern style.
506 (AC_OBJEXT, AC_EXEEXT): Remove; obsolete.
507 (AC_GNU_SOURCE): Add.
508 (AC_HEADER_STDC): Renamed from AC_STDC_HEADERS.
