+
+ Reduce memory consuption when handling the -T option.
+
+ The commit cdb27293 made the -T option more flexible, but
+ incurred a very considerable memory overhead by storing
+ all file names in the argument array. In case of very
+ big file lists this caused tar to run out of memory. This
+ was reported by Christian Wetzel <wetzel@phoenix-pacs.de>
+ on March 14, 2013
+ (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2013-03/msg00018.html).
+
+ On the other hand, Michal Žeidl discovered that tar misfunctioned
+ when given empty file lists or lists with the trailing newline
+ misssing in the last entry. This was reported by Pavel Raiskup
+ on July 23
+ (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2013-07/msg00009.html
+ and
+ msg00010.html).

+ * src/tar.c (request_stdin): Make extern.

+
+ Fix some problems with negative and out-of-range integers.
+
+ Original problem reported for HP-UX LVM v2.2 by Michael White in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2012-10/msg00000.html>.
+ This patch fixes some other gotchas that I noticed.
+ * gnulib.modules: Add extern-inline.
+ * src/common.h: Use _GL_INLINE_HEADER_BEGIN,
+ _GL_INLINE_HEADER_END.
+ (COMMON_INLINE, max, min): New macros.
+ (represent_uintmax, valid_timespec): New inline functions.
+ (SYSINT_BUFSIZE): New constant.
+ (sysinttostr, strtosysint, decode_timespec): New decls.
+ * src/create.c (start_private_header): Silently bring the time_t
+ value into range; it is now the caller's responsibility to deal
+ with any overflow error. Use uid 0 and gid 0 rather than the
+ user's uid/gid, since the faked header isn't "owned" by the user
+ and the uid/gid could in theory be out of range. Leave major and
+ minor zeroed.
+ (FILL): Remove.
+ (write_gnu_long_link): Let start_private_header zero things out.
+ * src/create.c (write_gnu_long_link, write_extended):
+ * src/xheader.c (xheader_write_global):
+ Use start_time, not current time; no point hammering on the clock.
+ * src/compare.c (diff_multivol): Check that offset, size are
+ in range.
+ * src/incremen.c (read_incr_db_01, write_directory_file_entry):
+ Allow negative time_t, dev_t, and ino_t.
+ * src/list.c (max): Remove (moved to common.h).
+ (read_header): Check that size is in range.
+ (from_header): Return intmax_t, not uintmax_t, to allow negative.
+ All callers changed. At compile time, check assumptions about
+ intmax_t and uintmax_t. Use bool for booleans. Avoid overflow
+ hassles on picky hosts.
+ (mode_from_header): Last arg is now bool *, not unsigned *.
+ All callers changed.
+ (simple_print_header): Do not assume UID, GID fit in 'long'.
+ * src/list.c (from_header):
+ * src/xheader.c (out_of_range_header):
+ Arg is now a plain minimum value, not minus minval converted to
+ uintmax_t. All callers changed.
+ * src/misc.c (COMMON_INLINE): New macro.
+ (sysinttostr, strtosysint, decode_timespec): New functions.
+ * src/sparse.c (oldgnu_add_sparse, oldgnu_fixup_header)
+ (star_fixup_header):
+ Check for offset overflow.
+ (decode_num): Clear errno before calling strtoumax.
+ * src/tar.c (expand_pax_option): Don't discard nanoseconds.
+ * src/xheader.c (assign_time_option): Allow negative time_t.
+ (decode_record): Simplify, since out-of-range string is guaranteed
+ to produce a value exceeding len_max.
+ (xheader_read): Last arg is off_t, not size_t.
+ Caller should diagnose negative arg, as needed.
+ Check that it's in range.
+ (enum decode_time_status): Remove.
+ (_decode_time): Remove, folding into decode_time.
+ (decode_time): Return bool, not enum decode_time_status.
+ Rely on decode_timespec to do most of the work.
+ (code_signed_num): New function.
+ (code_num): Use it.
+ (decode_signed_num): New function.
+ (decode_num): Use it.
+ (gid_coder, gid_decoder, uid_coder, uid_decoder,
+ sparse_map_decoder)
+ (sparse_map_decoder): Code and decode negative values.
+ (sparse_map_decoder): Improve check for out-of-range values.
+ * tests/time01.at: New file.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Add it.
+ * tests/testsuite.at: Include it.
+
+2012-12-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ Port use of mkdirat etc. to Solaris 10.
+
+ * gnulib.modules (fchmodat, fchownat, fstatat, mkdirat, unlinkat):
+ Add. These were split out in gnulib, so we now need to request
+ them separately. mkdirat, for example, is not in Solaris 10.
+
+2012-12-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ Port ACL configuration to Solaris 10.
+
+ * configure.ac (with_posix_acls): Fix misspellings.
+ Stop checking at the first failure, to speed up 'configure'.
+
+2012-12-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ tar: remove unused externs, or make them static
+
+ * src/buffer.c (record_buffer_aligned, flush_write_ptr,
+ flush_read_ptr)
+ (duration):
+ * src/list.c (recent_global_header):
+ * src/unlink.c (deferred_unlink_delay):
+ * src/transform.c (transform_flags):
+ * src/xattrs.c (acl_get_file_at, acl_set_file_at,
+ file_has_acl_at):
+ Now static.
+ * src/common.h (rmt_command_option): Remove; unused.
+ * src/tar.c (check_links_option, allocated_archive_names):
+ Move decls here from common.h; these are now static.

+ * configure.ac: Add support for --enable-gcc-warnings,
+ taken from coreutils and simplified.
+ * gnu/Makefile.am: New file. Formerly this was autogenerated,
+ but the autogenerated file has been renamed to gnulib.mk,
+ its usual name when bootstrapping from gnulib.
+ This way, AM_CFLAGS can incorporate warning options.
+ * gnulib.modules: Add manywarnings.
+ * lib/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.am (AM_CFLAGS): New macro,
+ incorporating warning options.

+ defined.

+ (sys_exec_checkpoint_script):
+ * src/tar.c (update_argv):
+ Add casts to char * to pacify GCC warnings about using string
+ literals in a char * context.
+ * src/xattrs.c, src/xattrs.h (xattrs_clear_setup):
+ Declare parameters as (void), not ().
+ * src/xheader.c (xheader_format_name): Initialize pptr to null,
+ to pacify GCC. Remove unnecessary test of nptr versus null.

here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-tar/2010-08/msg00000.html
