32a72f45	2023-01-01T01:14:21	maint: run 'make update-copyright'
7924f0e7	2022-12-27T08:15:38	Add --pull, --gen options to build-aux/bootstrap This supports a single bootstrap script with --pull and --gen options, as an alternative to separate autogen.sh and autopull.sh and bootstrap-funclib.sh auxiliary files. * top/bootstrap: With --version, also output library version. Support update of package that has only the bootstrap script, and not the other three files.
0455e4cf	2022-12-27T11:13:05	stdnoreturn: Mark as deprecated, not obsolete. (Regression 2022-12-24.) * modules/stdnoreturn (Status): Remove. (Notice): Say that it is deprecated, not obsolete. * doc/noreturn.texi: Fix a typo.
c28598c3	2022-12-24T01:29:29	stdnoreturn: deprecate C23 says <stdnoreturn.h> is obsolescent, so deprecate the stdnoreturn module. I don't think it was being used anyway as it had too many problems. * modules/stdnoreturn: Mark as obsolete.

35bd46f0	2022-12-23T15:18:29	file-has-acl: improve recent NFSv4 support This fixes a link failure with emacsclient on GNU/Linux. This program wants file_has_acl but none of the other ACL primitives, so it doesn’t link acl-internal.o; this way it doesn’t need to link with -lacl. While I was at it I reviewed the recent changes, fixed some unlikely overflow bugs, and adjusted to GNU style. * doc/acl-nfsv4.txt: Remove. Its contents are now in a comment in lib/file-has-acl.c. * lib/acl-internal.c, lib/acl-internal.h: Move recent changes relating to acl_nfs4_nontrivial to lib/file-has-acl.c, so that there is no trouble linking programs that need only file_has_acl. * lib/file-has-acl.c (acl_nfs4_nontrivial): Move here from lib/acl-internal.c, so that we needn't link -lacl in programs that want only file_has_acl, such as emacsclient. Do not assume a char buffer is aligned for uint32_t. Check more carefully for buffer read overrun. Allow up to 6 ACEs, since other code does; but check that they’re distinct. Avoid integer overflow. Use memcmp rather than strncmp to compare memory blocks. (file_has_acl): Preserve initial errno instead of setting to 0. Allocate a bit more room for trivial ACL buffer. Use EINVAL for botchedk NFSv4 ACLs (which shouldn’t happen).
b0604a8e	2022-12-02T13:40:19	file-has-acl: Basic support for checking NFSv4 ACLs in Linux. * lib/acl-internal.h (acl_nfs4_nontrivial): New declaration. * lib/acl-internal.c (acl_nfs4_nontrivial): New function. * lib/file-has-acl.c: Include <arpa/inet.h>. (XATTR_NAME_NFSV4_ACL, TRIVIAL_NFS4_ACL_MAX_LENGTH): New macros. (file_has_acl): Test for NFSv4 ACLs. * doc/acl-nfsv4.txt: New file.
ee37744d	2022-12-21T13:25:39	asctime, ctime: deprecate C23 deprecates asctime and ctime, so deprecate them in Gnulib too. * NEWS, doc/posix-functions/asctime.texi: * doc/posix-functions/ctime.texi: Mention this. * lib/time.in.h (ctime): Deprecate any ctime replacement. * modules/ctime: Now obsolete.
8453b553	2022-12-06T00:25:34	argp: Correct documentation. Reported by José E. Marchesi <jemarch@gnu.org>. * doc/glibc-functions/argp_*.texi: Mention the 'argp' module.

ddfcbc95	2022-11-02T18:14:15	scratch_buffer: adjust to glibc changes Problem reported by Karl Berry in: https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-gnulib/2022-11/msg00004.html * build-aux/depcomp, doc/make-stds.texi, lib/malloc/scratch_buffer.h: Autoupdate. * build-aux/install-reloc (func_create_wrapper): Omit removed file scratch_buffer_dupfree.c. * config/srclist.txt: Remove lib/malloc/scratch_buffer_dupfree.c * lib/canonicalize-lgpl.c: Merge changes from glibc through its commit ef0700004bf0dccf493a5e8e21f71d9e7972ea9f dated 2022-07-05 11:04:45 +0200. (__strdup) [!_LIBC]: New macro. (struct realpath_bufs): New type. (realpath_stk): Use it as the extra argument. All uses changed. No longer any need for noinline or GCC_BOGUS_WRETURN_LOCAL_ADDR. * lib/canonicalize.c (struct realpath_bufs) (canonicalize_filename_mode_stk): Likewise. * lib/malloc/scratch_buffer_dupfree.c: Remove, since it was removed in glibc. * lib/scratch_buffer.h (scratch_buffer_dupfree) [0]: (__libc_scratch_buffer_dupfree): Remove decls. * modules/relocatable-prog-wrapper (Files): * modules/scratch_buffer (Files, lib_SOURCES): Remove lib/malloc/scratch_buffer_dupfree.c.
841e32cc	2022-10-17T02:44:54	getdelim: Work around buggy implementation on macOS 10.13. * doc/posix-functions/getdelim.texi: Mention the macOS bug. * m4/getdelim.m4 (gl_FUNC_GETDELIM): Let the "checking for working getdelim function" test answer 'no' on macOS.
c25bd64b	2022-10-12T17:18:20	doc: improve intprops doc * doc/intprops.texi: Tighten up wording, by saying that macros "yield 1 if X, 0 otherwise" rather than the weaker "yield 1 if X". Say "yield" rather than "return" since the macros are not functions. Say "1" and "0" rather than "true" and "false" since the macros yield int. Say that stdckdint.h is the standard alternative to the _WRAPV macros. Mention another source of problems with the _OVERFLOW macros.
54c09c98	2022-09-23T09:06:22	warnings, manywarnings: Doc fixes. * doc/manywarnings.texi (manywarnings): Improve usage instruction. Start list of comments on particular warning flags, based on comment from Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>. * doc/warnings.texi (warnings): Mention that it is often used with manywarnings.
0804812c	2022-09-13T17:29:36	stdalign: alignas and alignof are C23 keywords * m4/stdalign.m4 (gl_STDALIGN_H): Check also whether alignas and alignof are keywords and so don’t need stdalign.h, and define HAVE_C_ALIGNASOF if so. If not, arrange for config.h to #define alignas and alignof by including <stdalign.h>. * modules/stdalign: No need to include <stdalign.h>. * tests/test-stdalign.c: Do not include stdalign.h.
c504bec0	2022-09-13T17:29:35	assert-h: static_assert is a keyword in C23 * m4/assert_h.m4 (gl_ASSERT_H): Also test for static_assert keyword a la C23, and define HAVE_C_STATIC_ASSERT if so. If not, arrange for config.h to #define static_assert by including <assert.h>, and then do "#undef assert" so that the assert macro still needs an explicit include. This should be safe even on very old hosts, as assert.h has been re-includable for decades. * tests/tests-assert.c: New test. * modules/assert-h-tests (Files, Makefile.am): Add it.
b22b1e42	2022-09-13T12:56:56	stdalign-tests: port to C23 * tests/test-stdalign.c: Do not test __alignas_is_defined, _Alignof, or _Alignas as they are obsolescent. Do not use __alignas_is_defined in C23 or later (or C++11 or later), as it’s removed in C23.
e0e5ec8a	2022-09-11T15:39:48	verify: port better to C23 * lib/verify.h (_GL_VERIFY, static_assert): If C23, use static_assert keyword; no macro. This should simplify diagnostics and debugging.
7986a219	2022-09-10T18:56:14	uchar: Work around error in C++ mode on AIX 7.2 with xlclang. * lib/uchar.in.h (char16_t, char32_t): On AIX with xlclang++, define these as macros. * doc/posix-headers/uchar.texi: Document the AIX + xlclang++ bug.
2f858e5e	2022-09-10T11:41:32	Rely on new stdbool behavior Prefer the C23 style to the C99 style, since the stdbool module now supports C23. * lib/acl-internal.h, lib/acl.h, lib/argmatch.c,

All uses of _GL_UNUSED_PARAMETER (after parameters) replaced by _GL_ATTRIBUTE_MAYBE_UNUSED (before parameters). Although perhaps we need a shorter name for _GL_ATTRIBUTE_MAYBE_UNUSED, that should probably be in gnulib-common.m4, due to the ubiquity of this issue. And perhaps the snippet/unused-parameter module should be marked obsolete since it's no longer compatible with its old use. * m4/gnulib-common.m4 (gl_COMMON_BODY): Define the macro _GL_HAS_C_ATTRIBUTE, and use it instead of __STDC_VERSION__ in deciding whether to use C2x attributes like [[__deprecated__]]. (_GL_ATTRIBUTE_MAYBE_UNUSED): Fall back on _GL_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED. (_GL_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED): New macro, for labels where C2x [[maybe_unused]] do not work.

Apps must define both macros. Gnulib applications that use either the largefile or the year2038 modules will want this behavior; largefile because it deals with the off_t and ino_t components of struct stat already, and so should also deal with time_t. * NEWS, doc/largefile.texi, doc/posix-headers/time.texi: Mention this. * m4/largefile.m4: Override two macros even in Autoconf 2.70 and later. (_AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): #undef $1 before #defining it, in case some other Gnulib macro has #defined it. (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Use AS_IF and AS_CASE to propagate AC_REQUIREs. Invoke gl_YEAR2038_BODY if we need to set _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. * m4/year2038.m4 (gl_YEAR2038_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro. (gl_YEAR2038_BODY): New macro, with gl_YEAR2038’s old body; this macro is designed to be used directly instead of being AC_REQUIREd. It takes an argument specifying whether 64-bit is required. Set _TIME_BITS=64 if this makes a difference in time_t width when setting _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. Do not warn about 32-bit time_t more than once. * modules/largefile (Files): Add year2038.m4.

file-has-acl: improve recent NFSv4 support This fixes a link failure with emacsclient on GNU/Linux. This program wants file_has_acl but none of the other ACL primitives, so it doesn’t link acl-internal.o; this way it doesn’t need to link with -lacl. While I was at it I reviewed the recent changes, fixed some unlikely overflow bugs, and adjusted to GNU style. * doc/acl-nfsv4.txt: Remove. Its contents are now in a comment in lib/file-has-acl.c. * lib/acl-internal.c, lib/acl-internal.h: Move recent changes relating to acl_nfs4_nontrivial to lib/file-has-acl.c, so that there is no trouble linking programs that need only file_has_acl. * lib/file-has-acl.c (acl_nfs4_nontrivial): Move here from lib/acl-internal.c, so that we needn't link -lacl in programs that want only file_has_acl, such as emacsclient. Do not assume a char buffer is aligned for uint32_t. Check more carefully for buffer read overrun. Allow up to 6 ACEs, since other code does; but check that they’re distinct. Avoid integer overflow. Use memcmp rather than strncmp to compare memory blocks. (file_has_acl): Preserve initial errno instead of setting to 0. Allocate a bit more room for trivial ACL buffer. Use EINVAL for botchedk NFSv4 ACLs (which shouldn’t happen).

assert-h: static_assert is a keyword in C23 * m4/assert_h.m4 (gl_ASSERT_H): Also test for static_assert keyword a la C23, and define HAVE_C_STATIC_ASSERT if so. If not, arrange for config.h to #define static_assert by including <assert.h>, and then do "#undef assert" so that the assert macro still needs an explicit include. This should be safe even on very old hosts, as assert.h has been re-includable for decades. * tests/tests-assert.c: New test. * modules/assert-h-tests (Files, Makefile.am): Add it.

doc: use UTF-8 encoding * doc/gnulib.texi: Use ‘@documentencoding UTF-8’. Partly this is because there are a few UTF-8 characters in the .texi files and there seems little point nowadays to @U-ifiying them. And partly it is so that the .info output uses nicer UTF-8 characters, e.g., it single-quotes ‘like this’ instead of 'like this'.

2021-07-30T12:56:24

gnulib-common: update for C2x 2020-12-11 draft Use blessed-by-draft-standard way to test for [[__deprecated__]] etc.; this is supported by GCC 11 and the fallback code should work fine with GCC 10 and earlier, clang, etc. * NEWS, doc/attribute.texi: Mention that DEPRECATED etc. must now come first. * lib/fflush.c, lib/unistr.in.h: Do not include unused-parameter.h. All uses of _GL_UNUSED_PARAMETER (after parameters) replaced by _GL_ATTRIBUTE_MAYBE_UNUSED (before parameters). Although perhaps we need a shorter name for _GL_ATTRIBUTE_MAYBE_UNUSED, that should probably be in gnulib-common.m4, due to the ubiquity of this issue. And perhaps the snippet/unused-parameter module should be marked obsolete since it's no longer compatible with its old use. * m4/gnulib-common.m4 (gl_COMMON_BODY): Define the macro _GL_HAS_C_ATTRIBUTE, and use it instead of __STDC_VERSION__ in deciding whether to use C2x attributes like [[__deprecated__]]. (_GL_ATTRIBUTE_MAYBE_UNUSED): Fall back on _GL_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED. (_GL_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED): New macro, for labels where C2x [[maybe_unused]] do not work. (_GL_UNUSED, _GL_UNUSED_LABEL): Use it. * modules/fflush, modules/unistr/base (Depends-on): Remove snippet/unused-parameter. * modules/fflush (selinux/selinux.h, selinux/context.h) (selinux/label.h): Do not use $(UNUSED_PARAMETER). Remove useless chmod a-x.

year2038: support glibc 2.34 _TIME_BITS=64 In glibc 2.34 on Linux kernels where time_t is traditionally 32-bit, defining _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and _TIME_BITS=64 makes time_t 64-bit. Apps must define both macros. Gnulib applications that use either the largefile or the year2038 modules will want this behavior; largefile because it deals with the off_t and ino_t components of struct stat already, and so should also deal with time_t. * NEWS, doc/largefile.texi, doc/posix-headers/time.texi: Mention this. * m4/largefile.m4: Override two macros even in Autoconf 2.70 and later. (_AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_MACRO_VALUE): #undef $1 before #defining it, in case some other Gnulib macro has #defined it. (AC_SYS_LARGEFILE): Use AS_IF and AS_CASE to propagate AC_REQUIREs. Invoke gl_YEAR2038_BODY if we need to set _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. * m4/year2038.m4 (gl_YEAR2038_TEST_INCLUDES): New macro. (gl_YEAR2038_BODY): New macro, with gl_YEAR2038’s old body; this macro is designed to be used directly instead of being AC_REQUIREd. It takes an argument specifying whether 64-bit is required. Set _TIME_BITS=64 if this makes a difference in time_t width when setting _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. Do not warn about 32-bit time_t more than once. * modules/largefile (Files): Add year2038.m4. (Depends-on): Require gl_YEAR2038_EARLY.
